7 times Luka Doncic and Nikola Jokic showed they were best friends at the NBA All-Star Game

Luka Doncic Nikola Jokic NBA Dallas Mavericks Jokić Steph Curry

Luka Doncic and Nikola Jokic’s NBA All-Star experience should be studied and documented for future generations. If you’re going to be at the All-Star game, it’s better to do it with your best bud.

This article is not about me hyping up the NBA All-Star game. (After that bewildering and disappointing 200-point display on Sunday, the best moment was Stephen Curry vs. Sabrina Ionescu.) But, something I definitely want to shine a light on is the absolutely precious bond between Dallas Mavs star Luka Doncic and his brother from another mother, Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic.

There were multiple moments during All-Star Weekend when the pair was captured having the time of their lives hanging out with each other, and somebody needs to see it! (For goodness’ sake, if it isn’t horses, Jokic doesn’t get excited about much. This is huge.)

Here are the 7 moments you missed at the NBA All-Star game of Luka and Jokic being best friends:

1

2
Jokic and Luka goofing around while getting shots up

3
