    I remember his rookie season and everyone calling him Hillbilly Kobe. Now, there are no HBK references out of respect for his request to drop it.

    He’s awesome to watch. It’s great to see players who are clearly not the most athletic on the court but have a strong basketball IQ have success. Jokic and AR-15 help give hope to others who may not be as athletic but can still be successful.
