Nuggets Face Pressure Over Nikola Jokic's Future if Roster Falters, Per Report
Although the three-time MVP plans to wait until next year for a larger extension, concerns reportedly linger over how the supporting cast performs around him.
Denver's front office faces mounting pressure as uncertainty surfaces regarding Nikola Jokic's long-term future with the franchise, according to a report from BasketNews citing John Hollinger of The Athletic.
Jokic has previously insisted that he intends to remain in Denver and sign an extension next year, a timeline that allows the three-time MVP to qualify for a larger contract.
However, doubt reportedly remains over whether that pledge holds if the roster around him underperforms. Per the report, questions persist about the strength of Jokic's long-term commitment should Denver's supporting cast fail to meet expectations.
