Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic was recently asked who he thinks are the top five best players in the NBA. However, the question comes with a caveat, as Jokic was asked to name the top five aside from himself, via SPORTSRADIO 94WIP of Audacy. “I think there is a lot of talent,” Jokic said. “I’m going to say Joel (Embiid), Luka (Doncic)… You gotta put KD (Kevin Durant) and LeBron (James) there.

Being around Golden State superstar Steph Curry avails, as Brandin Podziemski can pick the brain of arguably the league’s greatest point guard. On the latest episode of “Dubs Talk” with Dalton Johnson and Monte Poole, Podziemski explained how he utilizes his future Hall of Fame teammate as a resource. “I do ask [Curry] a lot of stuff, but I do understand that he has a lot on his plate and a lot of other things besides helping the young guys to worry about, so I try to limit [asking questions] as much as I can,” Podziemski explained to Poole and Johnson. “I try to get out only the good questions.” -via NBC Sports Bay Area / December 28, 2023

“Just from afar, you look at all superstars across the league, you kind of feel like they have some entitlement to them because they are who they are,” Podziemski told Poole and Johnson. “But, I remember I had my press conference at Chase Center and then I got back on a plane to go home for a little bit. [Steph] FaceTimed me on the plane and he was just really down to earth and a really cool dude. “ -via NBC Sports Bay Area / December 28, 2023
