A EuroLeague franchise owner has made it his mission to bring Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic to Europe on his franchise. Jokic spent three years playing in Europe for MegaBasket in Serbia, but that team never qualified to play in the premier EuroLeague. That bet paid off as Jokic is a two-time league MVP and one-time Finals MVP, and still at the peak of his powers. Jokic averaged 27.7 points, 12.9 rebounds, and 10.7 assists last season, once again finishing as an NBA MVP finalist for his triple-double average.
