Nikola Jokic's life has a lot of layers to uncover in it. The Denver Nuggets legend seems to only treat basketball as his job and likes horse racing way more. Moreover, he is also more than just a well-rounded player with a pudgy physique. He has a lot of fight in him that most people don't want to see, especially when he's provoked violently. This all-time great learned a lot of these tactics from his family. His brothers are definitely a big influence on him too. But, how many siblings does he have?
Well, Nikola Jokic has two brothers which means they are three siblings in total. He is the youngest among all of them and it explains why he's always the most protected child in the family. His two older brothers are named Strahinja and Nemanja. Their names and faces may ring a bell because these are the same two who always have his back when he gets into scuffles with other NBA players.
The big man has a lot of love for his brothers. They are the godfathers of his daughter and also changed his life around to become one of the greatest hoopers of all time. This same love is reciprocated to him by his siblings. Nemanja always reminds the Nuggets star of what he has and to never take it for granted: "He's an intelligent guy and I'm confident he wouldn't get off track here. But this is such an important time and I want him to have the kind of support I didn't. I always tell him, 'You're living my dream. Don't take it for granted. Don't make the mistakes we made.' "
The three siblings always have each other's backs. Despite the fact that Nemanja and Strahinja love to dabble in MMA more than in basketball, they still have a shared love for their family and horse racing. Truly, their bond is only strengthened by the thickness of their blood.
