Denver Nuggets star and NBAMVPNikola Jokic is known for his notorious off-season adventures, but this time the situation was more serious than usual. A recent video of Jokic’s annual rafting trip on the Tara River in Bosnia-Herzegovina has gone viral, showing a serious safety hazard that endangered his life in the rapids.
The Tara River, known for its strong currents and challenging rapids, is no place to take unnecessary risks. However, Jokic, with his laid-back, adrenaline-loving attitude, decided to take the plunge without the necessary precautions.
In the images, Jokic can be seen enjoying the thrilling experience of the rapids, but without a crucial safety element: a life jacket. While his fellow adventurers were properly equipped, Jokic, in an oversight that could have cost him his life, was not wearing this essential device.
Nikola Jokic is admired not only for his talent on the court, but also for his adventurous spirit. The Serbian and the Denver Nuggets were eliminated from the NBA playoffs by the Minnesota Timberwolves. After the home loss Jokic gave another lesson in professionalism: the better team won.
