Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic may again hold off on signing an extension. Jokic is again eligible to extend this offseason. He could delay that and extend either later in this season or next offseason. Jokic also holds a player option for the 2027-28 season and could re-sign with Denver at that point.

There is no sense that Jokic and the Nuggets are headed towards a breakup. Both player and team have expressed their desire to see Jokic play his entire career in Denver.

Jokic eligible to sign a three-year extension worth almost $215 million if he picks up his player option for 2027-28). If he opts out of that season, Jokic could sign a four-year extension for more than $280 million.
