Nikola Jokic is a favorite of NBA general managers.
Every year, NBA general managers conduct an annual survey to predict which players will win certain awards or lead certain categories. This year, it appears that Nikola Jokic is the favorite of general managers, who they think will win in multiple categories.
Jokic was voted the most popular player by NBA general managers in the following categories:
- Who will win MVP
- The player the GM will start the franchise with
- The best center in the NBA
- Best international player in the NBA
- The best passer of the ball
- Better basketball IQ If there was any doubt that Nikola Jokic is the best player in the NBA, now is the time to let that go: he is clearly the best. Even though Jokic was named the second-best player in the NBA by ESPN, NBA general managers clearly disagree with that statement. Last season, Nikola Jokic won both the NBA Championship and NBA Finals MVP awards. He dominated throughout the playoffs, never slowing down against any opponent, including Anthony Davis. With this level of dominance, it will probably be difficult for Jokic to achieve such form again. Seeing how Jokic handles the upcoming season as the current champion will reveal a lot about how much he wants to be one of the best NBA players of all time.
