Nikola Jokic has become of the league's best passing big men. At just 23-years-old, he has already become the face of the Denver Nuggets franchise and is an increasingly exciting player to watch, too.

He has averaged an impressive 17 points, 10 rebounds and six assists a night - all of which have been an improvement from the previous season. His only challenge in achieving All-Star level recognition is the stiff competition he faces across the Western Conference.

However, if he continues to develop his game with such rapid progression levels and maintain consistency in his playing style, there's no reason why he would establish himself as one of the NBA's best big men.
