A point guard in a body of a center, Nikola Jokic has captivated NBA fans around the world. He was the third European and the sixth player overall born outside the USA to become the MVP. In addition, the only Denver Nugget to earn the distinction. It was inevitable with career-highs across the board, the 26.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 8.3 assists falling slightly short of a triple-double season.
