It's been on the air for a long time, and this morning (Thursday) it's becoming official: Nikola Jukic of the Denver Nuggets has won the NBA MVP Award, for the second time in a row.
The Denver Serbian player, ahead of Joel Ambid and Philadelphia who finished in second place - by a large margin of votes, Yannis Antokompo was the third to receive the most votes after the duo.
Lyukich, who has already finished the season for him after being eliminated with Denver in the first round of the playoffs, is a second straight win and another major milestone in the legacy he leaves in the best league in the world.
He provided impressive ability this season while scoring 27.1 points, dropping 13.8 rebounds and delivering an average of 7.9 assists per game.
The Serbian's win of the title, becomes another significant milestone in the best league in the world, as this is the fourth year in a row that the title goes to a non-American player.
Yannis has won it twice in a row - and now it's Jukic's turn to win again for the second time.
By the way, the actor himself who is currently on holiday in Serbia, received the message while spending time on a horse farm.
What authenticity.
