Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic has been known to be one of the larger players in the NBA. While his size hasn’t negatively impacted his play, there is no denying that he could have stood to lose a few pounds. Well, it seems like that is exactly what he did during the NBA’s quarantine hiatus.
In a brand new video that was making the rounds on Twitter yesterday, Jokic can be seen looking a lot slimmer than we are used to. Fans immediately took notice of this new look and praised him for what must have been a pretty intense training regiment. Clearly, Jokic was hard at work and was ultra-focused on his body. Many players have used the time to get in shape but none of done it quite like Jokic.
The Denver Nuggets are one of the best teams in the Western Conference so with Jokic in shape, we can only imagine how fresh they will be once the season returns next month. Jokic is considered to be one of the best big men in the league and there is no denying that he will be quicker and stronger come July.
If you’re a Nuggets fan, you can’t help but be excited.
