Nuggets' Nikola Jokic reveals where his insane behind-the-back preseason pass ranks

Nikola Jokic revealed that a behind-the-back assist he delivered in Denver’s preseason opener may be among his best. Speaking in an interview shared by the NBA on Wednesday, the three-time MVP reflected on the pass to Cam Johnson that stunned fans against the Utah Jazz. The play came on Oct. 4: Jokic backed down Lauri Markkanen near the baseline, then threw a no-look, behind-the-back pass across the court. Johnson caught it in the opposite corner and hit an open 3-pointer. When asked where it ranked among his greatest passes, Jokic said, “Probably right on the top.”
