Nikola Jokić actually dressed like Gru from Despicable Me ahead of Lakers – Nuggets

Nikola Jokić actually dressed like Gru from Despicable Me ahead of Lakers-Nuggets.

Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokić must’ve been feeling … despicable … ahead of Saturday night’s 2024 NBA playoffs opener against the Los Angeles Lakers.

On the same day a promo for Despicable Me 4 showed Jokić trying to avoid a group of adoring Minions because he looked like their boss, the Nuggets ace dressed exactly like Gru from the Despicable Me movies as he arrived at Ball Arena in Denver.

This is just next-level hilarious from Jokić as he has fully owned the fact that, in the right outfit, he does look exactly like Gru from Despicable Me.

The commitment to the bit is astounding.

We are fully on-board with Jokić owning this for the rest of the NBA playoffs, as they’ll run throughout the spring and summer as Despicable Me 4 continues to promote the upcoming sequel.

At this point, we really wouldn’t be shocked if Jokić makes a voice cameo in the movie. That’d be the perfect finale.

The Minions won’t leave Nikola Jokić alone because he looks like Gru in new Despicable Me 4 promo

Nikola Jokić has a new group of fans: the Minions.

As the Denver Nuggets prepare to defend their NBA title in this year’s playoffs, superstar Nikola Jokić will play a massive role in that pursuit.

However, it seems like he might have to deal with a new batch of fans during this playoff run.

A brand-new promo for the animated sequel Despicable Me 4 shows Jokić, dressed in a suit, lamenting on the fact that he looks like Gru from the Despicable Me movies.

Because of that, Jokić shows that he’s being followed by a bunch of Minions who cannot get enough of how he looks like their (formerly) despicable boss.

This is an incredibly fun promo for the playoffs and the new movie, as Jokić and Minions is the combo we really didn’t know we needed.

If there’s ever a Space Jam-esque crossover between these two in a new movie, we will be there opening day for whatever happens.
