Follow Us
It was good news for the Denver Nuggets as their big star returns. After missing four straight games, the reigning MVP, Nikola Jokic makes his return. Moreover, he plays his comeback game against Miami Heat.
The last time he played against Miami, he was involved in one of the ugliest plays of the season when he shoved Markieff Morris from behind. While all that is in the past, there could be some retaliation from the Heat. To ensure that nothing happens, his brothers are there at the game.
Jokic has a very close bond with his brothers. It was evident from the playoffs last season where they made an appearance almost every game. However, they have made a name for themselves for being aggressive when Jokic is involved in any scuffle.

Now, as Jokic returns, so do the brothers. They are present at the Miami game despite the warning from NBA veteran, Udonis Haslem.
