Perhaps the most-skilled center to ever play in the NBA, the Nuggets have found success running their offense through him, given his playmaking abilities, averaging double-digit assists for the first time this past season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_86co8rywm\">With three league MVPs to his name and a victory in the 2023 NBA Finals, the Nuggets looked geared up for another run at a title in 2026. While Jokic is busy right now in China on a tour, his brother, Strahinja Jokic, was recently seen making his latest public appearance.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">TRENDING: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NBA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">#NBA<\/a> superstar Nikola Jokic&#8217;s brother is sitting behind the Nuggets bench at their Summer League game. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LzsKw3ABb8\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/LzsKw3ABb8<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 MLFootball (@_MLFootball) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/_MLFootball\/status\/1946071072089977268?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">July 18, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_7ffgcw8bs\">During Thursday&#8217;s Summer League game between the Nuggets and the Los Angeles Clippers, Strahinja was seen sitting in the crowd supporting Denver as they pulled out the 81-76 win.
