Nikola Jokic, a 6'11", 284 lbs. Serbian center for the Denver Nuggets and a 3-time NBA MVP, is considered one of the greatest draft steals in NBA annals. Presented is a 2020-21 Nikola Jokic Denver Nuggets' game worn shooting shirt. Jokic is popular with both fans and players, and he carries a collection of nicknames: "Joker" is his primary nickname, but he is also called "Yoke", "Big Honey", and "Cookie Monster". Jokic helped take the Serbian National team to a Silver Medal in the 2016 Summer Olympics and a Bronze Medal in the 2024 Summer Olympics. He has already played ten seasons in the NBA, all for Denver (2015-16 through 2024-25). He had a stellar season in 2024-25 as he averaged a triple-double: 29.6 PPG, 10.2 AST, and 12.7 TRB. At this writing he is about three weeks away from beginning his 11th season for Denver. His NBA career marks so far: 21.8 PPG, 7.2 AST, and 10.9 TRB. In 2022-23, he led Denver to the NBA Championship and also won that season's Finals MVP.

In the 2014 NBA Draft, Denver selected Jokic with the Nuggets' second round pick, as the 41st overall in the draft. Jokic was considered so unimportant at that time that the televised draft was showing a Taco Bell commercial when Jokic was selected. The TV audience missed seeing the selection of a hidden superstar.
