The Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic has been dominating the hardwood in the current season with an inspiring all-round performance. Moreover, the Serbian star has played a major role in the unstoppable Nuggets’ performance. Despite his consistent effort on the hardwood, the haters have found a way to discredit his contribution to the team’s success. However, a former NBA star gave a fitting reply to the haters prompting a fan debate in the social media comment section. 

2x NBA MVP Jokic has maintained a triple-double average this season with 24.8 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 10 assists in 54 games. He recently went on to create history by scoring a triple-double with 100% shooting. Even after the outstanding feat, the haters pointed out his lack of athleticism and strength in Jokic. Moreover, they discredited him by mentioning that the eye test doesn’t match the stats. However, former Los Angeles Clippers star JJ Redick stood up for the Nuggets star in his recent podcast episode.
