Nikola Jokic is no longer a hidden gem in the vast landscape of the NBA. He is now in the spotlight and the national media is looking for him to make the leap to being the next great European front court terror. While Jokic has a game that is already quite polished there are still issues and development needed.
Jokic is coming off a fantastic Olympic qualifying tournament and Olympic games in which he averaged 13.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 2.6 assists overall. He was a focal point of a Serbian National team that secured the silver medal after losing to the United States in the gold medal game.
