In Development: Nikola Jokić

While Nuggets 2014 First Round Draft picks Jusuf Nurkic and Gary Harris were learning and experiencing the nuances of the NBA game during their rookie seasons, another Nugget prospect was improving in his own way on the other side of the world last season.

The third member of the Nuggets 2014 draft class, Nikola Jokic, put together a fantastic season for KK Mega Vizura of the Adriatic League.

With in-depth International Scouting prowess, the Nuggets front office staff led by General Manager Tim Connelly and Assistant General Manager Arturas Karnisoivas selected Jokic in the second round with the 41st overall selection of the 2014 NBA Draft.
