Denver Nuggets' basketball player Nikola Jokić has set another personal record, according to ESPN.
In a regular-season match against the Golden State Warriors, which Denver won 120:114, Jokic made 18 out of 18 free throws. This marks an individual record for the Serbian player. Additionally, it is the second-highest free throw performance on Christmas Day in NBA history. This season, Jokic is averaging 26.4 points, 12.4 rebounds, and 9.2 assists per game.
Jokic is a Serbian professional basketball player who plays as a center for the Denver Nuggets in the National Basketball Association (NBA). He was selected by the Denver Nuggets as the 41st overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft.
Leading among all Europeans in the number of triple-doubles in NBA history, Jokic ranks in the top four for this achievement among all players. He has participated in the NBA All-Star Game five times from 2019 to 2023 and was the NBA champion and Finals MVP in 2023.
