The last time the Denver Nuggets and Miami Heat met earlier this month, the NBA world got some serious drama during and after the game.
There was Nikola Jokic’s vicious cheap shot on Markieff Morris, who hasn’t played since. Heat players tried to confront Jokic and the Nuggets in the hallway after the game, Markieff’s twin brother Marcus tweeted threats at Jokic … and Jokic’s siblings responded to Marcus by starting up a Twitter account just to respond (it’s since been deleted).
Well, the two teams meet Monday night, and there’s apparently been talk about the Jokic brothers actually coming to Miami for the game, and longtime Heat vet Udonis Haslem will have none of that. Via the Miami Herald:
Jokic’s brothers could be at FTX Arena, though, with multiple reports speculating that Strahinja and Nemanja Jokic purchased tickets to attend Monday’s game between the Heat and Nuggets. …
“I have nothing to do with that, man. We’re going to play a basketball game,” Haslem said. “That’s over with. I don’t have nothing to do with that. I keep hearing about the Jokic brothers buying tickets to come to the game. They better stay in line and don’t come down there and start trouble. Miami is my city. It’s my city.”
OK then!
