The Denver Nuggets star, Nikola Jokic, became a three -time NBA MVP and champion of a second round of Serbia.
The Nuggets Jokic National Team in the 2014 Draft of Serbia was announced as the ESPN transmission showed a Taco Bell commercial. When Jokic jumped to fame in recent years, NBA fans could not believe that someone like the selection of the Star center apparently had overlooked.

He said in an interview with the Nuggets social media team that he never ate in the fast food chain.
“I think I've never had Taco Bell just because of that,” he said.
Jokic did not reach the NBA until the 2015-16 season and became a player who could compete for the initial role. He started in 55 games in his first season and 59 games in his next season. Then it began 73 of 75 appearances in the 2017-18 season.

The Nuggets star obtained its first appearance in the star game in 2019 and its status grew from there. It was a consecutive MVP in 2021 and 2022 and then again during the 2023-24 seasons. Denver also won the NBA title in 2023.
He is one of the best players in the league and potentially one of the best international players that the NBA has seen.
This year, Jokic averages 29.4 points, 12.7 rebounds and 10.4 assists for nuggets. It will be disputed by the NBA MVP once again.
