Jokic spotted alone

A fan spotted Nikola Jokic walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of August 9, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Nikola back on the market?

A rep for Nikola Jokic was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the basketball player was splitting hit the internet Monday (August 10), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Nikola’s phone number?”
