Why anyone would mess with Nikola Jokic’s brother, who looks like a real-life Incredible Hulk, is beyond me, but it happened again…
Strahinja Jokic, the oldest brother of Nuggets star Nikola Jokic, was involved in another confrontation with a fan during a recent Nuggets game against the San Antonio Spurs, with video of the exchange going viral on social media.
The incident occurred when a Spurs fan was reportedly celebrating and directing taunts toward Strahinja, who was watching the game from a suite area. What began as typical fan behavior quickly escalated into a tense face-to-face exchange.
Video of the moment shows Strahinja standing and confronting the fan directly. Reports suggest he told the fan to sit down, and the fan complied.
It is the latest in a pattern of incidents involving the Jokic brothers at Nuggets games. Strahinja Jokic pleaded guilty in October to one count of trespassing and one count of disorderly conduct after punching a Lakers fan in the face during a 2024 playoff game at Ball Arena. He was sentenced to one year of probation.
That incident, which also involved the third Jokic brother, Nemanja, went viral on TikTok after video showed a verbal exchange between the brothers and a fan escalating into a punch. Strahinja told officers at the time that he felt he’d done nothing wrong because he was defending an older man that he has known for a long time.
The Jokic brothers have been known as fiercely protective supporters of Nikola, frequently reacting strongly from the stands when they feel he is being disrespected. In 2021, they got into a public feud with Marcus and Markieff Morris after a heated on-court exchange between Nikola and Markieff.
The Nuggets have not publicly commented on the latest incident.
