Serbia Makes Official Nikola Jokic Announcement Ahead of EuroBasket

Denver acquired Cameron Johnson from the Brooklyn Nets for Michael Porter Jr., added Jonas Valanciunas from the Sacramento Kings and signed Bruce Brown and Tim Hardaway Jr. in free agency.

While it has been a busy offseason for the Nuggets, their star player Nikola Jokic was in the news on Monday as Serbia officially announced that the superstar center will play for them during EuroBasket 2025.

Serbia officially revealed their roster for the upcoming tournament on Monday and it is packed with loads of talent that is headlined by Jokic.

Joining Jokic on Serbia’s roster is other NBA players Bogdan Bogdanovic, Nikola Jovic, Nikola Topic and Tristan Vukcevic along with Vasilije Micic who recently signed with Hapoel Tel Aviv of the EuroLeague where he became the league’s highest-paid player.

With this amount of talent on their roster, especially with Jokic leading the way, Serbia is expected to be one of the top teams during EuroBasket 2025.

Serbia will begin play with friendly games that begin on August 5 before the officially tournament begins on August 27.

Of course, Serbia will compete in Group A at EuroBasket 2025 where their opponents will be Estonia, Portugal, Latvia, Czechia and Turkey.

Serbia will look to move out of the group stages and compete for a championship this summer but they will have quite a few teams standing in their way due to the immense amount of international talent that will be on display.
