Nikola Jokic won life

Nikola Jokic is about as unassuming and humble as they come. A devout family man, willing passer, fierce competitor, a loving father and husband. Jokic is often called joker but he should be nicknamed Santa. The guy has never passed up an opportunity to give to others.
Willingly going out of his way to defend Joel Embiid after the Sixers lost calling him a very deserving MVP? Check.
Saying Jamal Murray is the best player on the Nuggets since round one? Check.
Wearing his wedding ring on his sneakers all year because he's married to his wife every bit as much as he's married to the game? Check.
In a sea of confused men oscillating between toxic and c*ckold, there exists a man showing you the right way. The right way to care about your family, the right way to represent your country, and the right way to play the game of basketball. Bravo Nikola!

Smart man, Jokic. I was 41 when my son was born, practicing medicine and working 60-70 hours/week. I made a promise to myself that I was going to be the best daddy ever, never raise my voice, never say "sorry, I'm busy right now. We'll do it later." He came first. And the next 18 years were the highlight of my life. I usually got home about 7 PM, and spent 1-2 hours with him, playing dumb games, making planes, rockets, drum kits, reading to him every night from age 2 to nearly 16. We played soccer, ran, skied, did martial arts together, and I let him drive on the back roads in the mountains from the age of 11 (he was extremely level-headed). So now he's a very conservative driver. My wife was the ideal mother, too. He's now 33, and honestly, he is the happiest, most likable and well-adjusted young man I've ever met. Love, commitment and time work wonders. And I had a ball.

[@raywong1930]

this is probably one of the most honest and hearted answer I've ever heard from the public media! Too many smart questions and answers!!

[@mikegavric2477]

As a Slovenian with Serbian parents, it brings me so much joy to see Jokic and Doncic doing so well in the league ❤

[@alfonsomaravilla6295]

This dude is special. And that baby has a blessed father and mother .

[@annunakian8054]

Dominates the NBA as a hobby 😂

[@lightintheshadows2023]

He didn't say it was a hobby he said his family is more important which means he has priorities #classact

[@RepasuhinNatin]

I think i defined him as the player not being too greedy about money and fame. He is just a professional basketball player at the highest level of game stage. FAMILY IS VERY IMPORTANT.

[@bossg2817]

Family and Horses. What a great role model Jokic is.

[@iLL3571]

This is a role model of a human, very few left in the spotlight

[@hunglikeahorse---fly]

Happy Father's day NBA MVP & CHAMPION !!!

[@dirkgoldman1155]

I love the fact that he always answers how things are instead of matching the big words that always comes from journalists.

[@mikerossful]

I’m a hard-core Celtics fan, but I wish we had men on our team like him. He has become my favorite basketball player!

[@richardallen7509]

Finally an athlete who gets it.🙏🏿❤

[@dmvweezy5235]

Real man. Being a father is the most important job in my life and I love it. Love my daughter more than I love myself

[@tonymontanez944]

I love it. This man is my fav player currently. Love his mentality, his soul, and lastly his game. God bless him and his family.

[@gabeyo6241]

Who's cutting onions?😢😢

[@pensarebasketball]

Everyone.

[@doktor3196]

"It's just basketball." In Jokic's life, that quote works.
