Treneri odabrali Jokića za učesnika "Meča svih zvezda"
Naš as 17. februara u Šarlotu među igračima koji su ostavili najupečatljiviji utisak ove sezone u najjačoj košarkaškoj ligi sveta.
Nikola Jokić (23, 213), centar Denvera, dobio je najvrednije priznanje za igre kojima je skrenuo pažnju na sebe. Iako ga nisu izabrali navijači (dobio je 1.445.989 glasova), treneri su doneli takvu odluku pa će naša košarka imati predstavnika na tradicionalnom meču prvi put posle Predraga Stojakovića 2004.
Glas poklonika NBA je rekao da su petorica najboljih u Zapadnoj konferenciji Stiven Kari (Golden Stejt), Džejms Harden (Hjuston), Kevin Durent (Golden Stejt), Pol Džordž (Oklahoma) i Lebron Džejms (Lejkersi), a na "Istoku" Kemba Voker (Šarlot), Kajri Irving (Boston), Kavai Lenard (Toronto), Grk nigerijskog porekla Janis Adetokumbo (Milvoki) i Džoel Embid (Filadelfija).
Jokić je sa "Zapada" jedini koji će učestvovati prvi put. Iz Istočne konferencije to su Crnogorac Nikola Vučević, centar Orlanda, i Ben Simons iz Filadelfije.

Jokić je prvi Denverov igrač na "Meču svih zvezda" posle 2011, kada je Karmelo Entoni bio u prvoj petorci.
