Nikola Jokic said at the end of April that he was not interested in a transfer, after Denver's play-off loss to eventual champion Golden State.
We now understand why: the 27-year-old Serbian pivot will extend his adventure with the Nuggets after signing a record contract of 264 million euros over five seasons, according to several American media.
This is the biggest contract in NBA history for Jokic, twice voted best player of the NBA season, as the free player negotiation period begins.
Drafted in 41st position in 2014 by Denver, the Serb has become a superstar as discreet as it is essential for the Nuggets.
And when we love, we don't count.
