Team Serbia roster: Meet the team Nikola Jokic could lead to a medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics
Team Serbia has arguably the best NBA player, Nikola Jokic, competing during the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Jokic, who nearly had one of the first triple-doubles recorded in the history of men's Olympic basketball, helped lead his nation out of group play and into the quarterfinals. As usual, he has had perhaps the most outstanding performance of any men's basketball player competing during the Olympics.
But he isn't the only one who is playing well for his nation. Serbia is also getting tremendous help from Bogdan Bogdanovic (Atlanta Hawks) and other teammates as well. After finishing with a silver medal in the 2023 FIBA World Cup, they could have a similar result at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
