Kessler decided to use his question on something other than basketball, asking the two-time NBA MVP how he was doing.

“I like it,” Jokic replied. “Very good. I think we’re just waiting for the game to come. When the game comes, everything is going to be normal.”

Walker Kessler: “Just wanna know, how are you doing?”

Nikola Jokic: “I like it! Doing good, it’s rainy today, so.”

Kessler: “Listen, my day got brighter when I saw you.”
