This is the man that caught cal Raleigh’s 60th home run! He gave it to a kid who got swept away by the mariners team employees. What a gem and a Seattle legend

Jokic lights up the team during a timeout after going down by 13. They went on a 9-0 run after this:

🚨NEW WORDS ALERT🚨 It's almost time to solidify award picks! This week, I'll be examining three MVP cases -- and hopefully I'll help fans of their ideal candidate argue a little better lol. Today, we start with Nikola Jokic. sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/th…

@hoopsdunker32 watch a single second of ball. I beg you.

Hot take but Jokic isn’t a T3 playmaker in the sport, arguably not T5

@AlexiLalas My god shut the fuck up alexis

Great, I hope your Republican friends are too.

JD Vance tries to call Trump at a Viktor Orbán rally and gets sent to voicemail

@esidery @KalshiSports The list just lost a little luster

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander now has a 96% chance of winning 2026 NBA MVP, per @KalshiSports: SGA: 96% Victor Wembanyama: 4% The Thunder superstar will soon join an illustrious list of back-to-back MVPs.

Nikola Jokic has taken 27 shots tonight. Zero free-throws.

"He guarded Jokic the whole game." - @Chris_Broussard AND GOT COOKED 🧑‍🍳😂

@katywinge @BillSimmons @ZachLowe_NBA Here is the clip. Well-deserved.

@EthicalHoopz @BrandonRahbar Don’t forget about Nikola topic

@BrandonRahbar Brandon do you realize this is a team sport and nobody cares about Thomas Sorber missing a bunch of games lmao?

“Winning matters, but so does context.” OKC has a 12 game lead over Denver. SGA is 54-12. Jokic is 40-22. SGA is 3-0 vs Jokic. SGA outplayed Jokic each matchup. SGA is 20-7 in clutch games. Jokic is 14-17 in clutch games. SGA’s teammates have missed more games than Jokic’s teammates. Not sure what context makes up for that winning disparity. Jokic is incredible. These are still the 2 best players in the NBA. But SGA is the MVP this year.

@kingopp_mike @FTFonFS1 @Chris_Broussard Either Wemby guarded Jokic the whole time and got 40 dropped on his head or he didn’t guard him the whole time. It can’t be both

@NWNugs @FTFonFS1 @Chris_Broussard We gotta stop capping

.@Chris_Broussard is ten toes down on Wemby being the best player in the world: “Wemby wants to guard the best player. Wemby is equipped to guard the best player. Jokic might want to, he ain’t even equipped!...He guarded Jokic the whole game.”

Nikola Jokic this past week: 26.7 PPG 13.0 RPG 11.0 APG 1.0 BPG 56.0% 2PT 35.7% 3PT 82.6% FT 3-0 What’s the award for again?

It would be real tough to counter the argument in this article.

@bloomkral @MichaelVPina Boston media mafia classically supporting Denver athletes?

@MichaelVPina How did I know this guy would still pick Jokic no matter what despite him being 3rd in a two horse race 😭😭😭 Boston media mafia is so funny

here's my MVP ballot: theringer.com/2026/04/06/nba…

Sweet 30 points a game there sga. Real valuable

@FastbreakHoops5 SGA not leading in one of these categories but being the front runner for MVP is fucking wild. Jokic for me!
