Jokic almost averaged a triple double last season while having a usage rate less than 28%. To put that in perspective, LeBron last season had a usage rate of 33% and when Westbrook was averaging a triple double his usage rate was over 40%. That’s insane efficiency

As a Serbian fan of Nikola Jokić, I didn't miss a single season of him in the NBA. I watched his last season in the Serbian legion and then it was clear that he has more possibilities and a different style than other big players. I'm sure they saw the same thing in Denver during his first season. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to watch it live since then.

Obviously hindsight is 20/20 looking back but I honestly have no clue how he went 41st overall. Before being drafted he was already one of the best players in his league (had teams from 6 different countries) with amazing efficiency. He had one of the the basketball IQs in the draft, quick decision maker, by far the best passer for someone even close to his size (in years!), could shoot, amazing touch around the rim, all at 7 feet tall. Only thing that was a red flag was if his speed and conditioning could hold at an NBA level. With scouting today he would have certainly been a 1st round pick, probably in the late teens like Sengun, his closest comp IMO. Either way, ecstatic he’s in Denver and hopefully he can win us 4 more games 🤞
