The Denver Nuggets stormed their way to the 2023 NBA Finals, and are now on the verge of championship glory, holding a commanding 3-1 lead in the series against the Miami Heat.

At the heart of their remarkable postseason lies the undeniable prowess of Serbian sensation, Nikola Jokic. As a two-time NBA MVP, Jokic has masterfully orchestrated the Nuggets‘ triumphs, acting as the catalyst for their unrivaled success. His mesmerizing court vision leaves his teammates, including Jamal Murray, in a state of utter admiration.

Some of the passes he makes, and how quickly he makes them, that is what impresses me the most. If the pass is open, there is no hesitation,” Murray said before Game 5.

Despite already dazzling the league, Murray firmly believes that Jokic has yet to unleash his full potential. The Serbian stalwart’s playoff performance has been nothing short of awe-inspiring, nearly averaging a triple-double and obliterating records along the way, as he ascends to the throne of the NBA.

He won his first MVP, and then his numbers were better with the second MVP, and now his numbers are even better,” Murray added. “I think there is more to come, actually, from Jokic, and I think that we are going to see a side of him that we haven’t seen before, where he can be pure dominance, the whole time, even more than he has been.”

As the Denver Nuggets stand on the verge of their first-ever championship, their hopes rest firmly on the shoulders and untapped potential of Nikola Jokic.
