\”LeBron James Is Without A Doubt The Best Player On Earth” Rival Nikola Jokic Praises King James

In the latest encounter against Minnesota Timberwolves, the Lakers lost 111-102. With fives losses in their first five games, Los Angeles has not exactly been able to stage the comeback they were hoping for after the embarrassing exit last year. Meanwhile, Nuggets star from Serbia, Nikola Jokic, has showered praise on Lakers star LeBron James.

Nikola Jokic Praises LeBron James!

The Denver Nuggets defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 110-99 on Wednesday. The Nuggets clearly outclassed their opponent in their season-opening match. Contrarily, the Lakers initially struggled to make shots. James, the captain of their team, struggled with his shooting and didn\’t start scoring until the second period. LA struggled to make shots all night, and they didn\’t start scoring until the second period.

Nikola Jokic, the league\’s current MVP, stood out during this contest with the Lakers. The Serbian center scored 31 points and completely dominated the game. However, after the game, Jokic showered accolades on Lebron James. After the game, Jokic was questioned regarding their plan to stop Los Angeles. Unexpectedly, the MVP praised the All-Star Lakers squad and said that they were determined to stop them before anyone else. In reference to LeBron James, Nikola stated, \”We gave the game our whole attention. We know that LeBron is the finest player on the planet\”. 

He went on to praise Anthony Davis as the second-best in the Basketball world and said that the nuggets focused entirely on stopping these two players. Jokic was selected in 2014 as the number 41 pick. Since then, he has steadily progressed and is currently the NBA\’s top center. Meanwhile, Davis\’ career got off to a peculiar start. The Hornets made him their first-round pick in 2012. He has been an All-Star since his second year.

Denver won because they had a better starting position than the opposition. On paper, their roster appears to be more balanced than the Lakers\’. The Nuggets\’ roster includes more solid outside shooters. Additionally, the current MVP, who is challenging for most teams to stop, serves as the club\’s leader. And getting praise from the competition is something LeBron James will cherish.

After missing a lot of games last season, Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. are back in the starting lineup for Denver. Conversely, the Los Angeles Lakers are in dire need of shooters. The front office failed to find any shooters to assist spread out the floor over the summer, which disappointed them. The Lakers\’ continued failure is now being recognized as the fruit of their labor.
