In a copycat league, I love NBA players like Jokic who bring some spice and life to the league. I don't watch a lot of NBA, but the Nuggets have been a fun team to watch.
There are a few comparable NCAA players for Jokic fans out there:
Trevion Williams, junior from Purdue: The offensive counterpart to Aaron Wheeler, the offense runs through the 6'10 265 junior when he's on the court, especially when Stefanovic and Williams share the court. Over the last few years, Purdue has been my favorite team in the Big Ten: I like Painter and his teams are usually very easy to root for.
Ashan Asabullah, junior from Lipscomb: 6'8 265 load in the post who leads the team in assists, scoring, rebounds and blocks. Like the Nuggets, Lipscomb has a lot of shooters: four regulars shooting over 40% from 3. The A-Sun is a weak league, but Lipscomb's two games against Liberty on Friday and Saturday afternoon are likely the most competitive games Lipscomb will see until March.
Last year, I would have said Cameron Krutwig from Loyola-Chicago. He's a great passer, but the offense isn't running through Krutwig as much as the last two years.
