On Thursday, the city of Denver will witness a grand parade celebrating the Denver Nuggets’ historic NBA championship victory. However, in a recent interview tweeted by NBA TV on June 13, the newly crowned NBA Finals MVP revealed his hesitation about joining the championship parade.
Jokic’s offseason plans hold a special place for horse racing, adding a twist to his decision. During his appearance on NBA TV’s postgame coverage, Jokic disclosed his eagerness to return home swiftly. He humorously stated, “On Sundays, I have my horse racing. I don’t know how we’ll arrive. Thursday, parade. Friday, maybe.”
Jokic’s lifelong love for horses shaped his journey
Jokic’s affinity for animals traces back to his childhood, when his father introduced him to the world of racing, igniting a lifelong fascination. However, he advised the MVP player to focus on basketball first.
