A few days ago, according to the NBA league name Woj news report, Nuggets star Jokic has now successfully won the regular season MVP trophy this season. It is worth mentioning that last season's MVP trophy was also won by Jokic, so now Jokic is also one of the few superstar players in the history of the league to win MVP consecutively. With Jokic now winning the MVP heavyweight honor award again, the early renewal of Jokic's player contract in the off-season is also officially put on the table.
According to the statistics of NBA salary expert Bobby Marks, Jokic can renew a 5-year top salary contract with the Nuggets this summer for a total of up to $260 million. Considering that Jokic is now a two-time MVP superstar in the league, and he is still in the peak golden period of his career, it is not surprising that the Nuggets will definitely take the initiative to send a contract, and Jokic does not seem to have the possibility of rejecting this top salary contract, after all, the real money of 260 million US dollars is indeed very tempting.
As we all know, Jokic's last player contract was signed in the summer of 2018, and the contract amount at that time was 147 million US dollars for 5 years, which was also the largest salary that Jokic could get at that time. Now Jokic's star level and strength level are obviously higher than the original level, so Jokic's next player contract is naturally up to the historical level of 260 million US dollars. It's no exaggeration to say that many NBA stars have not received a total salary of 200 million in their entire careers, and Jokic can now make $260 million on just one top-salary contract.
In fact, during the NBA League draft that year, Jokic was really not a high-profile supernova, he was not even a first-round show player in the league at that time, but was officially selected by the team in the second round of the draft in 2014. But now Jokic is the strongest superstar player in the league today, and can even call Jokic the strongest second-round show player in NBA history. Of course, now that he has won the regular season MVP trophy twice, and the super maximum salary contract is also locked early, Jokic, his next NBA career goal is probably only the championship ring, here is also looking forward to Jokic can finally succeed in the Nuggets to achieve the dream of the championship!
