The Jokic brothers tossed coach Mike Malone in the air (again!) after the Nuggets won the NBA Finals

The Nuggets won their first championship in franchise history and the Jokic brothers had the best reaction imaginable.

Nemanja and Strahinja, the two older brothers of Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic, are very involved in Nikola’s career. They were even a part of the negotiations when Jokic signed an extension with the Nuggets in 2022.

You may remember the Jokic brothers (and their shared Twitter account) from heckling Jack Nicholson during Game 3 of this series against the Lakers or their near skirmish against the Suns in June 2021.

After defeating the Lakers in the Western Conference finals, the Jokic brothers lifted Nuggets coach Mike Malone and tossed him in the air like a baby.

Once the Nuggets officially won the NBA Finals, the Jokic brothers kept the tradition alive and showed Malone love once again.

Note that while he looked incredibly small in this video, Malone is actually listed at 6-foot-2 and played four years of college basketball for the Loyola Greyhounds men’s basketball team in Maryland.
