Former NBA Star Shares Hilarious Nikola Jokic Offseason Update

Former NBA Champion shares hilarious Nikola Jokic update in offseason

Nobody knew exactly what to expect from the Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs, especially with an interim head coach at the helm being thrown into the fire that is playoff basketball. However, the Nuggets performed admirably, defeating a tough Los Angeles Clippers team in seven games to advance to the second round.

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic did everything he could to will the Nuggets past the buzzsaw Oklahoma City Thunder. In Game 1, he was successful, scoring 42 points and securing 22 rebounds to take the series lead and momentum. However, injuries eventually caught up to the rest of the team, including Michael Porter Jr. and Aaron Gordon and the Nuggets fell in seven games. 

Now, in the offseason, his teammate and former NBA Champion DeAndre Jordan shared the update he received from Jokic back in his home country of Serbia.

"He sent me a picture with a horse," Jordan said. "A selfie, him and the horse together. I was like 'Alright, have fun, brother.'"

Jokic has gained fame for his passion for horses and horse racing. It should be of little to no surprise to hear Jokic enjoying himself and away from basketball.

The Nuggets will face some difficult decisions this offseason. Do they do a massive shake-up of the roster, or do they attempt to address their lack of depth and add role guys rather than making a play for another star?

Only time will tell.
