The famous Serbian basketball player Nikola Jokić spoke to the American media about the current state of the Denver Nuggets as well as about the race for the MVP award.
Denver is currently sixth in the West, and they are in a dogfight for a spot in the playoffs.
“We lost some games that we should have won, we won some games that we should have lost, so we are somewhere, let’s say, where we belong, but we should be happy and satisfied, especially since we don’t have some main players, because our main players were injured. “Not only Jamal and Michael Porter and PJ, when we later traded, even Vlatko got hurt, when we used it for a while, and he got hurt, so we are satisfied with where we are,” said Jokic.
The famous Joker said that he is currently following the events of the MVP race, in which Joel Embiid, Jokić and the Greek Giannis Antetokounmpo are in the first three places.
“I’m not following, somehow it’s just happening, it’s just a side effect. I am glad that I did not fall, that I did not relax, that I am still in good shape. “”Now, whether it’s 27 points or 24 points, that can change, but I’m glad that I feel good and can lead my team, somehow, in the best way I can at the moment,” “he said.
He also said that he was not thinking about the Serbian national team now.
