After being picked in the second round as the 41st overall pick to the Nuggets, Nikola Jokic's rise to glory is one worth cherishing.

The Serbian center has brought forward a completely distinctive approach to operating the game from the center position on the court, both on offense and on defense.

He is leading all bigs with a career-high assists average of 7.7 in 56 games thus far. Having being named the 'Serbian Player of the Year' in 2018, the Joker quickly followed it up with his first All-Star berth this year.

The seven-foot center for the Nuggets has so far recorded 12 triple-doubles in the 2018-19 season, a stat never-before-seen from any player of his size and utility.

He is averaging career-highs of 20.4 points, 10.6 assists and a statement-setting 1.4 steals per game en route to Denver's Championship bid this season.

Highlight: The Joker posted an impressive triple-double of 32 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists in a win against the Sixers last month.
