Jokic, after losing three straight MVPs, won the first championship of his career this season and the first championship in the history of the Denver Nuggets, thus ending the team's championship-free history. Even more surprising was that he won the Finals Most Valuable Player honor for his outstanding performance. This player, who used to be nicknamed "White Fat Man", is now rising strongly, which is amazing.
This season, Nuggets' main receiver Murray was injured and Porter Jr. was not in good shape and failed to provide enough help to Jokic at the front, but Jokic still stepped up to the top of the team in fourth place in the West with a 14-9 record. In today's huddle era, it is not easy for the Nuggets to stand at the forefront of the West alone.
According to statistics, Jokic has contributed 624 points, 286 rebounds and 211 assists this season, all three of which lead the league. As an interior player, it's not surprising that he leads the league in rebounds and scoring, but the total number of assists is even higher, a rarity in NBA history.
Arguably, he was a groundbreaking player, and arguably the most well-rounded center in NBA history, because this is the first time in NBA history that such a well-rounded center has appeared.
His total of assists has reached 4,170, the third-highest in the NBA's total assists by centers, behind Chamberlain's 4,643 and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's 5,660, while Jokic has only taken 617 games.

A triple-double of 30 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists, with just one turnoverAgainst the Rockets, he had a triple-double of 32 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists, also with zero turnovers. Such a performance is enough to make him worthy of the title of the league's No. 1 center, and it is not an exaggeration to call him the league's No. 1 point guard.
Jokic is not only a great ball-handler, but he also shows a remarkable selflessness, and he is not only good at providing assists, but also scoring efficiently, which is what makes him intimidating. Gordon once said: "He's humble, he's happy to share the ball with his teammates, he's a great leader. "Jokic has built a team culture with the Nuggets.
As an all-around choice for interior players, he is definitely one of the best centers in the league!
