Nikola Jokic To Miss World Cup
1 year agoDenver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic will not suit up for the Serbian national team in the FIBA World Cup. The multi-time MVP isn't injured. Instead, he'll sit out to rest, despite attempts from team captain Bogdan Bogdanovic to get him to reconsider. Jokic is coming off another stellar year, averaging nearly a triple-double and 1.3 steals. But considering he played until June to help capture the Nuggets' first NBA title, it's understandable why he'd want to take it easy for the remainder of the summer.
