The Nikola Jokic cheap shot on Markieff Morris has now taken a turn, and it’s getting pretty nuts.
To review: The Denver Nuggets superstar got a forearm shiver of a foul to his ribs from the Miami Heat forward, so Jokic then delivered a vicious cheap shot that injured Morris.
Markieff’s twin brother Marcus then took to Twitter to say “Waited till bro turned his back smh. NOTED,” a clear threat to Jokic.
And that’s when Jokic’s brothers — who have looked pretty menacing in the past when they see Nikola get into it on the court — stepped in on social media.
It appears an account called @JokicBrothers was JUST started in November 2021 — could it be on Tuesday, just after Marcus’s threat? — and these were the first tweets sent:
You should leave this the way it is instead of publicly threatening our brother!Your brother made a dirty play first . If you want to make a step further be sure we will be waiting for you !! Jokic Brothers

No. No way. That can’t be real. Has to be a fake, right? Per Mike Singer, the Nuggets reporter at the Denver Post, IT’S REAL!!!!
Just got a text from Jokic’s brother. This is their real account responding to Marcus Morris’s tweet last night. https://t.co/ON4AH3JxwN

I can’t get enough of this. The fact that they signed it “Jokic Brothers” is the cherry on top. Holy cow.
