Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic is the standard for many players and pundits in the NBA today.

Victor Wembanyama's teammates were the ones responsible for getting him here, but he's expected to make his grand return from a 12-game injury absence in an NBA Cup semifinal against Oklahoma City.

They're now 9-3 without Victor Wembanyama, and for those that want to throw dookie on the plus/minus stat, last year the Spurs only had three players on their roster with a positive flex.

And that's exactly the case for former All-NBA center Joakim Noah, who recently mentioned Jokic as his favorite player in the world. "My favorite player in the world. So fun to watch," Noah said of Jokic in an interview with Meridian Sport Srbija. "It’s hard to watch anybody else, to be honest.”

The Denver Nuggets are putting together a better offensive season than any team in NBA history.
