Nikola Jokić, a Denver Nuggets superstar, and his 2-year-old daughter Anđelija unexpectedly attended a game against the Vancouver Canucks at Ball Arena on Tuesday night.
Nikola Jokić and his adorable daughter stole the show at the hockey game in a heartwarming moment.
During the second quarter, the Jumbotron showed Jokić’s daughter cheering along with the audience chanting, “MVP!”
What a beautiful occasion.
The Denver Nuggets center expressed his support for his sister KSE squad by applauding and cheering beside his daughter Anđelija.
Jokić usually attended Avs games and was already employed in the building and only a few corridors away, so it must have been straightforward for him to ask his supervisor for a glass seat. Jokić has also attended games for the KSE-owned Los Angeles Rams, an NFL team.

Jokić’s time in Denver likely sparked his interest in hockey, as his home country of Serbia has only produced one prominent NHL player, Ivan Boldirev.
The Avs are seeking for their second straight home win on Tuesday following a long, difficult road trip to the east coast.
