We all know that Nikola Jokic is seeing his NBA career as somewhat of a side quest, and that’s exactly what we love about him. For the Joker, basketball is a job, and nothing more. A job he doesn’t even like most of the time, if we believe the Finals MVP himself.
Yes, Nikola Jokic is a global Superstar. But as soon as his NBA season ends, you’ll find him back home in Sombor, Serbia working on his farm, his stables, his horses while enjoying food and a couple of alcoholic drinks with his friends and family.
The fame and the money hasn’t changed Jokic one bit. He’s exactly the same guy that left Sombor over a decade ago. We’ve got another reminder of that after Jokic won a horse race a couple of weeks ago. The Finals MVP could be seen celebrating with a big trophy in his hands, while dancing to Serbian music, appearing a lot more excited than after winning the NBA championship.
Now, Jokic even got a fellow NBA champion and teammate to visit him and join him on the Sombor horse racing Hippodrome. Aaron Gordon stopped by in Serbia and tagged along on one of Jokic’s summer events. Expectedly, they walked away with the victory and yet another trophy.
