$20 for the best: Nikola Jokic made history with the Nuggets with a unique sweater in 2000

After being chosen by the Denver Nuggets in the second round, Nikola Jokic has emerged as one of the league’s top players. He is regarded as the greatest passing big man of all time and has won two MVP awards. Jokic was undoubtedly a wise choice for the Denver Nuggets front office to choose in the second round, and he may go down as the greatest second-round selection in history given that he was the least expected player to win the MVP award. They obviously saw his potential, but maybe there was also a small element of fate at play. Recently, Misko Raznatovic, Nikola Jokic’s agent, revealed a story about how the player received a Denver Nuggets sweater as a childhood gift in 2000. He said that “a little destiny plays a big role in the overall outcome” and that there “were minimal” odds that he would have owned a Nuggets sweater at the time.



Under Nikola Jokic’s direction, the Denver Nuggets ought to contend the next season, particularly with the return and health of Michael Porter Jr. and Jamal Murray. The Denver Nuggets, led by Jokic, finished the season as the sixth-seeded team, and they will only become more formidable in the following year.

Whether Nikola Jokic can eventually lead the Denver Nuggets to a championship is still up in the air. All he needs to do is win at the greatest level with the team, as he is already regarded by many as the greatest Denver Nuggets player of all time. I hope he succeeds in doing so.
