Possibly the greatest player of this generation, yet if you asked the average teen to name their top 10 players, I doubt he'd even make most lists
That’s because his peers don’t give him an ounce of respect, for what ever reason.
I remember a couple of Allstar games ago, when they had Bron and someone else basically picking players simultaneously, school yard style, Jokic was the last pick.

If you, like me, have gotten older and/or just don't pay much attention to the NBA anymore, I encourage you to just pull this up and look at the Records section of his career.

This guy might be playing the best individual stretch of basketball of all time these last 5 years or so. If you like the game, make a point to watch him play when you can. He's on a completely different level of understanding than all but a very few players ever.

Second best player ever, but he’s not far behind Bird.
When everyone else is playing checkers he’s playing chess. It’s pretty incredible to watch him on a good night.If you, like me, have gotten older and/or just don't pay much attention to the NBA anymore, I encourage you to just pull this up and look at the Records section of his career.

I followed your suggestion. Pretty unbelievable. This one was my favorite:If you, like me, have gotten older and/or just don't pay much attention to the NBA anymore, I encourage you to just pull this up and look at the Records section of his career.

“Fastest triple-double in NBA history (14 minutes and 33 seconds)[3] – official Guinness World Record”
Dude literally got a triple-double in barely over a quarter. Incredible. And if its a Guinness World Record, it means they’ve got no documented evidence of anyone, at ANY level, doing it faster. That’s mindblowing to consider when you realize he plays at the world’s highest level.
It’s beautiful basketball, but it doesn’t lead to sexy highlights. Plus he pretty much just shows up and does his job, so he doesn’t have any drama so he doesn’t get clicks that way.
I think most people with a basic familiarity with the NBA would list the guy who's won 3 of the last 4 MVP awards in their top 10 players.
Put him on our MBB team and he would suddenly average 3, 4, 1 with 5 PFs and 6 TOs per.
That is a great stat line and he is a great player, but it was in an overtime game without much defense, 149-141.
