Nuggets' Nikola Jokic creates way for him and Mavericks' Luka Doncic to team up
The Dallas Mavericks and the rest of the NBA are set to continue the second half of the season on Thursday. During All-Star weekend, we saw a barrage of moments between the stars, specifically Luka Doncic and Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic.
The relationship between the two is no secret to fans. Jokic and Doncic share a strong bond naturally through their nationality and a similar approach to the game.
As the cornerstones of each of their teams, it's highly unlikely for either star to be moved. Nonetheless, during the All-Star break creative questions can shine a light on what players may think.

Nikola Jokic was asked if there is a possibility that he and Doncic could ever team up in the future.
"I don't know... it's possible, I don't want to leave Denver. I like it there and it's a great organization, but if Luka gets pissed off in Dallas he can come"

The hypothetical dynamic duo of Doncic and Jokic would wreak havoc on the league. Regardless, these fun yearly moments between the two always bring good energy to fans who might be in the midst of a stressful season.
These are two players who could meet in the playoffs here in a few months, and it will be interesting to see how each player finishes the season. Both players could be contending for the NBA Finals as well as the NBA MVP, so keep an eye out for Dallas and Denver come playoff time.

Jokic was clearly joking when talking about the two teaming up, but it's clear that both players would love to join forces one day. For more news on Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks stay tuned.
