NBA Fans React To Nikola Jokic Receiving Big Offseason News on Monday

In this story:
The Denver Nuggets have been labeled as major offseason winners across the NBA community, highlighted by moves such as trading for Cam Johnson and bringing back 2023 NBA Champion Bruce Brown. Factor in the additions of Jonas Valanciunas and Tim Hardaway Jr., and the Nuggets have the depth on paper to compete with the best of the NBA.
However, when it comes down to it, Denver will only go as far as Nikola Jokic can take them. A three-time MVP who came up short of a fourth in a historic season, the superstar has been taking some time for himself this offseason, supporting his horses. In addition, he's not avoiding the basketball court, as was revealed in a big offseason announcement.
Serbia, meanwhile, has today announced that Nikola Jokić is indeed on its @EuroBasket roster, meaning we are on course to see Jokić, Luka Dončić and Giannis Antetokounmpo in the tournament that runs Aug. 27-Sept. 14: https://t.co/70cnWOSKp7 pic.twitter.com/8LZNQoc2VF
