Nikola Jokic, superstar of the Denver Nuggets, had a banner summer. Shortly after winning the NBA title, former two-time MVP Jokic returned home to Serbia to tend to his horses. The Serbian phenom doesn’t mess around when it comes to his hobby and is actually competing professionally with his stable.
Jokic recently won a horse race, which allowed him to get his hands on some silver items. The way the big man of the Nuggets danced and celebrated winning the title will move fans:
Nikola Jokic is really living his best life after winning a horse race in Serbia 😂🏆

There is no denying that Nikola Jokic is unlike any other NBA superstar we have seen in the past. This guy is one of a kind, and Nuggets fans absolutely love him for it.
At this point, we can’t help but be reminded of Jokic’s postgame interview immediately after winning the NBA title. More than anything, the five-time All-Star seemed simply relieved to have gotten the job done:
Based on his “job is over” statement in the interview above, the Nuggets star clearly sees basketball as his way of making a living. It’s not that he doesn’t enjoy it, it’s just that he takes much more pleasure in his horses.
