KUJZ-FM
Could three-time NBA Most Valuable Player Nikola Jokic suit up for a professional team in Greece in 2027-28?
Well, if Panathinaikos Basketball Club owner Dimitrios Giannakopoulos had his way, Jokic would be playing for his team this coming season.
Per Spotrac, he’s due to be paid $59,033,114 this season and $62,841,702 next season — but 2027-28 is Jokic’s option.
Jokic has averaged a triple-double each of the last two seasons.
Former NBA players such as Jerian Grant, Juancho Hernangomez, Kendrick Nunn and Guerschon Yabusele are listed on their preseason roster.
