Nikola Jokic is one of the most unique players in the NBA.
He, of course, is among the best players in the league, but many people have commented on his lifestyle outside of the NBA.
Jokic seems to live a humble life outside the basketball court and is primarily focused on his horses when the season is not going on.
Despite his love for all things equine, a recent report showcased Jokic’s ability to appreciate the finer, more expensive things in life.
According to reporter Harrison Wind, Jokic bought all of his team Serbia teammates a Rolex, which was allegedly worth over $30,000 each.

This is a wildly expensive gift for Jokic to give out, but when considering how much money he makes in the NBA, it might not seem like that much to him.
Plus, most of his teammates don’t get NBA money, and their career earnings will be significantly less than Jokic’s.
It appears that he just wanted to do something nice for his teammates from his home country, giving them a gift they won’t soon forget.
Jokic was masterful on the court for Serbia throughout the Olympics.
The United States was worried he’d have their number en route to winning gold, but despite a tough semifinal, they found a way to take him down.
Winning bronze at the Olympics is no small feat, and Jokic and Serbia still accomplished a lot.
Will he and the Denver Nuggets find similar success in the upcoming season, going on a deep playoff run?
