Sorry, Nikola Jokic. You have to show up for your team's championship parade.
After the Nuggets won their first title in franchise history on Monday night, Jokic learned that the official celebration would be held in Denver on Thursday. His reaction?
"No, I need to go home," Jokic said.
Despite his exasperation at his postgame press conference, the two-time MVP and his teammates will be in attendance for the festivities. Nuggets fans will certainly be ready for a party after watching their favorite NBA franchise snap a 47-year drought.
If you're not able to make the trip to Denver, though, don't worry. You can watch the parade from the comfort of your own home.
