Nikola Jokic and Luka Doncic are having a bromance during NBA All-Star weekend, and fans are worried they might team up someday.
Earlier this season, Doncic praised Jokic for being a “great guy” with a great personality.
“I think everybody knew him before,” “He’s not really on the media stuff a lot, but all the players, all the coaches know how special he is. Everybody knows how special he is. … He’s right now, probably the best basketball player in the world.
“Of course, he’s an amazing basketball player, but he’s a great guy. That’s what I love the most about him. Just always joking around. He’s just a simple and very amazing man.”
While warming up for the NBA All-Star game, Luka and Jokic were filmed having fun on the sidelines.

I’m terrified for how it’s gonna look for the rest of the league when they inevitably become teammates https://t.co/jYtgasO9TZ
