Nikola Jokić: Nikola Jokic Intends to Stay and Sign Extension in Denver

Nikola Jokic stated his desire to stay in Denver and plans to sign an extension next year, with league sources agreeing he is unlikely to leave. Waiting until next summer allows Jokic to sign a projected five-year, $360 million deal, the richest in NBA history. Meanwhile, the Nuggets have assembled a supporting cast featuring DeMar DeRozan, Tyus Jones, and backup bigs Marvin Bagley, DaRon Holmes, Zeke Nnaji, and Trevon Brazile as they attempt to maximize Jokic's prime.
