Ready for his first finals is Nikola Jokic.
The Serbian superstar is doing it all on the floor (again) this year, but his coach in Denver, Mike Malonesomething else stands out about him besides his playing skills.
Specifically, he emphasized that the Serb has not changed at all as a person, despite the fact that he became so popular all of a sudden.
In detail what he said:
“I think we all see it in all walks of life how fame, fortune affects you. And for most people, they change and become something different. Sometimes they forget where they came from and who helped them get where they are.
And the one thing I really love about Nikolas is that through all the success, the MVPs, the contracts, all of it, he’s still the same guy.
I admire that because I’ve been in the league for a long time and that’s rare in this league and for a celebrity, a superstar in general. So the fact that Nicola is still a humble selfless person and he cares about the house, he cares about the family, he cares about his horses. The guy is who he is. I couldn’t respect him more as a man because of it.”
