In search of the real Nikola Jokić - ESPN
ONE AFTERNOON THIS past summer in Sombor, Serbia, Nikola Jokić sat in an auto body shop and watched his friend Nemanja Pavkov work. They've been buddies forever, but this was the first time Jokić paid attention to how his friend makes a living. Pavkov was in constant motion, going from his phone to his customers in the front of his shop to the back, where he oversaw a paint job for one of Jokić's sulkies, the two-wheeled, chariot-like vehicles that attach to Jokić's horses as they race around his track down the street. It was all Jokić could do to keep up.
