Jokić was selected by the Nuggets in the second round of the 2014 NBA Draft (41st overall) and has since developed into a perennial All-Star and MVP candidate. Standing 6'11" (211 cm) and weighing around 284 lbs (129 kg), Jokić has an unconventional style of play for a center, excelling as a facilitator and playmaker. His ability to lead fast breaks, find open teammates with pinpoint passes, and score from anywhere on the court sets him apart from traditional big men.
