Nikola Jokic won the 2023 NBA Finals MVP for averaging 30.2 PPG, 14.0 RPG, and 7.2 APG against the Miami Heat.
The Joker is not your average superstar, as he essentially doesn’t care about winning accolades. The most recent example of it was when Jokic unveiled to ESPN’s Malika Andrews that he has already lost his NBA Finals MVP trophy.
Nikola Jokic says he lost his Finals MVP trophy:
"I really don't know. I left in the equipment manager’s room and it's not there anymore. So I don't know."

Another fan contemplated if Jokic is going to retire in a few years.
Is Jokic going to retire in a couple of years? It’s going from kind of funny, to, yo, does this guy hate basketball?

A fan called Jokic’s actions ‘disrespectful.’
All right…this is starting to get disrespectful. When Luka rules the league for the next 5 years he’ll wish he cared more when he got his 1 ring all that time ago.

Jokic’s carefree attitude is starting to get on the nerves of many fans now. Sure, his persona of not caring about individual accolades started out great, but there seems to be no stopping for Jokic. Losing the NBA Finals MVP trophy is simply disrespectful.
Austin Rivers Predicted Nikola Jokic Would Lose His NBA Finals MVP Trophy
Nikola Jokic has a likable personality. The Denver Nuggets superstar doesn’t care about most things that other players in the league make a big deal about.
Minnesota Timberwolves player Austin Rivers recently made a claim that Jokic may end up losing his NBA Finals Trophy in a garage. Well, Rivers’ suspicions have turned out to be correct.
“He’s so cool and collected to where, even after bad losses, he’s quiet,” Rivers said. “He moves the same way, never too high, never too low. That trophy of his is gonna end up somewhere in a garage and he’s going to race some horses and that’s the mystique to him.”
He added: “That’s why people really like him. He’s hard to market but people are starting to come around to his ‘I don’t give a f**k’ nature. Jokic is an animal man and he has this way about him that you can’t even explain. It’s nothing I have ever been around.”
Nikola Jokic has always been vocal about his love for animals, especially horses. It’s one of the things that makes Jokic likable among fans. While it’s great to have a laid-back nature, the Joker needs to draw a line.
