The Denver Nuggets big man Nikola Jokic was unable to tell ESPN’s Malika Andrews on Wednesday where he had left the Bill Russell Trophy after being named the NBA Finals MVP.
“I really don’t know,” Jokic said. “I left it in Nuggets [equipment manager] Sparky [Gonzales]’s room, and he’s not there anymore. So, I don’t know.”
Fortunately, the trophy turned up on Thursday for a raucous parade.
