Nikola Jokic has come a long way to become the great player he is right now. The Serbian big man has a very inspiring history that shows how hard he had to fight to make it to the NBA and to improve his fitness. Now he’s living the best time of his life, is part of a great team in the association and considered the best center in the competition.

10 years ago, he was just a kid trying to have fun playing the sport he loved and Jokic took to Facebook to ask if somebody wanted to play with him. One Redditor found an interesting pic of Jokic’s old activity on Facebook, where he asked people to go play ball with him.

Flash forward, he’s one of the best players in the league, an MVP candidate, and the most important player of a contender team like the Nuggets. The Joker dropped 50 points on the Sacramento Kings two days ago, demonstrating he is the real deal.

He has played against great players and has done a pretty good job, is considered at least one of the two best big men in the league and people believe he should be getting paid big money for his quality and contributions to his team. That kid who asked people to go play with has turned into this talented player who can pass, score and do almost anything on the court.
