It was all a matter of timing. The NBA Finals MVP wanted to get back to Serbia quickly to see his horses run in a race. After a watered parade, Nikola Jokic returned home in time to see his four-legged friends.
Monday, June 13, 2023, 9:00 p.m. Denver time. The Nuggets win the first title in their history but the double MVP and pivot of Mile High City has only one concern now: to return home. The locker room celebrations are underway but the parade hasn’t passed yet. The latter takes place on Thursday 15 but Nikola Jokic is not particularly thrilled and makes it known at a press conference.

Thursday 15, therefore. Seeing the images, we tend to forget that Jokic did not want to be there three days earlier. On the roof of a fire truck with his wife, daughter, brothers, trophies and all of Jamal Murray’s family, he looked over the moon as he presented the Larry O’Brien trophy to the whole crowd. capital of Colorado. The two major Nuggets players also took a ride in a tank while being escorted by SWAT, all with a few grams of alcohol in their noses. After the parade, head to Las Vegas to celebrate the title in due form. And according to Bruce Brown, who ended the evening badly because of his franchise player, the Joker knows how to celebrate a title.
“I want everyone to know, this is Nikola Jokic’s fault, that i’m down this bad. I don’t know what he had me drinking last night, but I blame it on #15.”

And now it’s June 19. Nikola Jokic arrives all dapper at his home in Sombor to watch the Sunday horse race. On the road from the airport to the racecourse, signs to wish him a good return were posted. Arriving at the sports arena, spectators had taken out their best Joker and Nuggets jerseys, but also t-shirts where it is written “Sombor, city of champions”. The MVP, he decided not to speak to the local and national press during the following days to take some time for him after his big exhibition.
