Novak Djokovic Speaks on Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and Nikola Jokic
Following his advancement to the US Open semifinal match, tennis legend Novak Djokovic spoke on the support he has received from other greats in the sports world, including Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic.
Per the ATP Tour staff, Djokovic said of Jokic, "Nikola Jokic is the best basketball player in the world at the moment. Incredible guy. Everyone is so amazed with his skills, what he does on a basketball court. I'm not a basketball expert, so I can't really talk about his game so much, but I'm a huge fan. Obviously a Serbian basketball player coming from Serbia, dominating the NBA, is something that doesn't happen very often. I think it never happened in the history of our basketball in Serbia, that we had best basketball player in the NBA. That's amazing. We all love him, support him."
According to the ATP Tour staff, Djokovic also spoke on the support he has received from NFL legends Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers, saying, "It was a pleasure to have Aaron in the stands tonight for the match. I'm hoping he enjoyed himself. Obviously him, Tom Brady being in my box for Roland Garros finals and sitting next to my wife, was a huge honour. I have a relationship with Tom for several years. We go back. I have tremendous respect for him."
These relationships across sports are always really fun to see, as athletes across the world have a high level of admiration for the top stars in other sports. For Jokic and Djokovic, the two Serbian stars have formed a connection as they continue striving for greatness in their respective sports.
