Renowned American journalist Kevin O'Connor is thrilled by Nikola Jokic's move, which saw the Serbian center outwit Victor Wembanyama.

In a thrilling encounter, Denver edged out San Antonio (136-134), a game highlighted by the incredible Nikola Jokic!

The Serbian superstar was once again dominant, finishing the game with an impressive 40 points, eight rebounds, and 13 assists. He was the pivotal player for his team, especially in crucial moments.

Adding to his highlight reel, he executed his famous Sombor Shuffle – scoring over Victor Wembanyama.

This move captivated the sports world, with journalist Kevin O'Connor particularly effusive in his praise.

Jokic's basket over Wembanyama is one of the best plays of this decade. And while everyone is talking about the MVP race between Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Wembanyama, I think tonight we got a reminder – don't forget the Joker.

His colleague, Justin Termine, added:

- It's a shame Jokic isn't a bit younger. If we had 15 years of Wembanyama vs. Jokic ahead of us, it would be one of the greatest rivalries of all time. These two guys are incredible. I'll enjoy watching Jokic and Wembanyama battle it out for as long as I can.
