Nuggets management talks about Jokic s future: fulfilling the contract but retaining the deal, four teams become potential next home

The Denver Nuggets management recently triggered the biggest controversy in the NBA offseason. Team owner Stan Clark made a shocking remark at the season summary meeting: "Of course we will fulfill our contract with Nikola Jokic, but if there is a serious injury, the transaction will become an option that must be considered." This calculating remark made the MVP, who had just led the Nuggets in the Remnants to fight the championship Thunder for seven games in a flash.

Clark's speech was regarded as a contempt for Jokic. Last season, the Nuggets suffered serious injuries and only 6 players were left in the rotation lineup, but Jokic still maintained the suspense of the game until the end with his super personal ability. Such performance is enough to prove his value, but the boss's attitude seems cold and realistic.

If Jokic eventually leaves the Nuggets, multiple teams may become his potential next home: the

Rockets, with Shin Kyung, who has a similar style to Jokic, will quickly become Western Conference powerhouses if they can get the MVP with young players and draft picks.

The Lakers need a new core to continue their competitiveness. Jokic's comprehensive capabilities can seamlessly connect with any system, and the market value of Los Angeles can also bring him more business opportunities.

Pacers, after Halliburton was injured, Jokic's support and scoring ability perfectly matches their fast-paced play.

In addition, the Warriors may also try to quote Green or other players. Although this will change the team structure, Jokic's addition will allow them to return to the championship ranks.

Clark's remarks undoubtedly shook Jokic's confidence in staying in the team. If the Nuggets management can't make a clear commitment, it may only be a matter of time before the league's top center leaves.
