Nearly 10 years after becoming the 41st pick in the 2014 NBA Draft, Jokic has proven himself to be one of the greatest players in league history. In the 2022/2023 season, he got the 5th time in the All-Star squad. He lost the MVP title to Joel Embiid, having won the title twice before.
With all those achievements, you will not be surprised to hear the salary of the Serbian player.
