Nikola Jokic’s Denver Nuggets were crowned the first NBA championship in history after defeating the Miami Heat 94-89 in game 5, thereby taking the overall win in the Series Finals with a score of 94-89. number 4-1. Jokic was later named MVP (Most Valuable Player).
Standing up to 2m11 tall, but clumsy off the field, laughing and making jokes to those around him, Jokic is considered one of the friendliest players in the NBA.
Although he comes from faraway Serbia, and in the 2014 selection, he was only ranked 41st, but with his constant efforts to rise, despite difficulties, determined not to give up, after 8 years, Jokic has built its successful position.
Simple and humble way of life, respecting others, is what makes Jokic so loved. That’s why, after winning the MVP Award, and becoming the first striker to win this award since Shaquille O’NNeal’s time; in which, he became the first player to lead in all parameters: Scoring (600 points), successful rebounding (269 times), and scoring assists (with 190 assists), Jokic is still shared by all his teammates as if he was just the youngest brother in the family.

Jokic shares his secret to success: “If you want to be successful, you have to go through the bad, then you need to be good, then when you’re going to be great, you have to fail, then, when you’re failing, you figure everything out.”
In the immediate future, all glory aside, Jokic will fly back to Serbia to ride horses with his brothers, family and friends, and he will not forget to congratulate the success of Serbian sports, with his victory.
