Nikola Jokic modeled his game after several Spurs power forwards

Following a Game 1 win against the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals, Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic sat down with the NBA TV crew and asked by former Spur Steve Smith who he modeled his game after. After joking it was Shaq, he went on to say that while he didn’t watch much NBA basketball growing up, when he got to the NBA, he listed three Spurs in Tim Duncan, LaMarcus Aldridge, Boris Diaw, plus Dirk Nowitzki.
