NIKOLA Jokic is not missing the Denver Nuggets’ playoff push in the NBA restart in Orlando.
Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports reported on Friday, Manila time that the Nuggets star big man is catching up with his team and expected to arrive “in the next couple of days.”
Jokic has been in Serbia in quarantine, but has already tested negative for COVID-19 after a positive result last month.
Travel restrictions postponed his arrival, but he is expected to catch up with the Nuggets, who touched down in Florida on Wednesday.
Jokic’s arrival is a big boost for the Nuggets, who are running third in the Western conference behind the two Los Angeles teams.
