NBA Rumors: Nikola Jokic Could Leave the Denver Nuggets
The Colorado franchise is having quite a few problems at the start of the 2026/27 season, and there is a possibility that they will end up losing their superstar.
The continuity of Nikola Jokic with the Denver Nuggets is not guaranteed. Although the Serbian center has expressed on numerous occasions his intention to end his career with the Colorado franchise, recent information suggests that his future remains uncertain.
An exit that cannot be ruled out
Journalist Tim Kawakami discussed the situation during 'The TK Show', where he stated that the possibility of Jokic leaving Denver is still open. “I've been hearing this for a while. It’s an open question. It’s very likely that he will return to Denver, but it’s an open question. There’s nothing guaranteed about his return to sign a long extension with Denver,” he explained.
Jokic has been a decisive figure in the transformation of the Nuggets. Under his leadership, the franchise won its first championship in 2023, and the Serbian was named Finals MVP. Unlike other major stars in the league, the center has opted for a quieter and more stable life with his family in Colorado, where he has expressed his desire to stay.
A historic career in Denver
Since arriving at the franchise in 2015, Jokic has built an extraordinary résumé. In addition to the 2023 ring and Finals MVP, he has won the NBA regular season MVP award three times.
On top of that, he has made eight consecutive appearances in the All-Star Game, recognitions that have established him as one of the most dominant players in the competition over the last decade.
