It's not often that NBA and Nuggets fans hear about Jokic once the season is over, as he usually goes back to Serbia to be with his horses. So, when Nuggets veteran DeAndre Jordan was able to provide an update on Jokic's offseason on an appearance on FanDuel's "Run It Back," it was notable.

The Nuggets have drafted well while building their current core, but they've also made some huge NBA Draft day mistakes over the years.
