From a second round pick to the largest contract in NBA history.
Jokic is the greatest draft pick ever, regardless of rounds. pic.twitter.com/tnTGNp5ezb – 6:00 PM

My expectation for free agency? The Jokic supermax gets agreed to, Davon Reed gets signed and #Nuggets find a C. Perhaps there’s room for another wing as well. – 5:40 PM

With Simmons needed to be sent out (to Heat or elsewhere) in any Bam/Nets deal, one HYPOTHETICAL permutation that would work within cap rules is Durant/Simmons for Bam, Herro, Lowry, Robinson and three first-rounders (including Jokic). – 3:41 PM
