Nikola Jokic is a wizard with the basketball, one of the best-passing young big men we’ve seen in the NBA in some time.
He’s also a master of the fullcourt pass, taking a page out of the book of Kevin Love. Still, making sure his Denver Nuggets teammates know that a long pass is coming is sometimes difficult.
But how does Jokic communicate a pass is coming without alerting the defense?
Like this, apparently:
Yeah, that feels about right.
Then again, Jokic doesn’t just make fullcourt passes that are pretty. This halfcourt one to Gary Harris for a game-winning jumper was pretty sweet, too.
We need more dudes filling up highlight reels with sweet passes.
