Nikola Jokić is enjoying his vacation in Serbia, and Denver Nuggets teammate Aaron Gordon joined him for a day of racing that has the internet in stitches.
Gordon hunted down Jokić last year in Prague, where the two-time MVP was playing for the Serbian national team. Gordon took teammate objectives to a new level this time, traveling to Serbia to watch horse racing with Jokić.
Jokić appeared to be in offseason mode, riding in on his bike in a tank top and shorts to watch the races with Gordon. The two appeared to be having a good time cheering for Jokić’s horses.
Here’s the video that went viral.
Brenno Laumar, Jokić’s top trotter, won for the sixth time in seven races, and the Nuggets’ tandem liked it. Gordon and Jokić’s odd bond was perfectly captured in the video.
If only every celebrity’s offseason was as free of trouble as The Joker’s.
