NBA Twitter Reacts To Nikola Jokic Making His Recruiting Pitch To Luka Doncic
Nikola Jokic and Luka Doncic are two of the most talented players in the NBA, who also happen to be close friends. Now, their friendship is making big waves in the NBA, with fans buzzing about the possibility of them playing together on the same team someday.
Right now, though, both players are all about leading their own teams. Jokic, already a champion, continues to steer the Denver Nuggets toward success. Doncic, meanwhile, hasn’t reached the same level yet with the Dallas Mavericks, but he hasn’t given up hope.
Will they ever team up in the future? That’s still a mystery. But it looks like Jokic might have already started making his pitch to Doncic, right after they played together at the 2024 NBA All-Star Game.
“I don’t want to leave Denver… If Luka gets pissed off in Dallas, he can come.”

Nikola Jokic says he’d be open to teaming up with Luka Doncic but only on the Nuggets.

Certainly, fans and pundits alike are quick to react, with nearly all of them envisioning the Doncic-Jokic pairing dominating the NBA. They go so far as to foresee the duo winning multiple championships or even creating a dynasty.
If Luka comes to Denver, its a instant dynasty

If these two play together, league is cooked in the silliest way possible

It would be over for the league if they team up

However, the idea has its detractors. There are fans who took issue with Jokic’s pitch to Doncic, directing their criticism at the Nuggets big man.
Luka going to Denver would be worse than KD going to Golden State.
