A spokesperson for the NBA has stated that the league is currently investigating an apparent incident involving Strahinja Jokić, the brother of Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokić. The incident allegedly occurred after the Nuggets secured a home victory against the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night.

A video circulating on social media since Tuesday shows Strahinja Jokić, clad in his brother’s No. 15 jersey, seemingly stepping over a row of seats to confront another spectator before delivering a punch to the individual’s head.

The Denver Police Department (DPD) has acknowledged the existence of the video and is actively reviewing the situation. However, they have noted that the incident at Ball Arena was not officially reported to law enforcement.

The Denver Police Department (DPD) has stated that no individual has stepped forward as a victim thus far, but the department is actively engaged in efforts to identify the person who was allegedly struck in the video. They encourage anyone who was present or witnessed the incident firsthand to reach out to the Denver Police Department with any relevant information.

CNN has reached out to the Nuggets, Lakers, and security personnel at Ball Arena for their input on the matter.

The circumstances leading up to the incident remain unclear.

Meanwhile, Nikola Jokić, a leading contender for his third MVP award following another impressive season, demonstrated his prowess on the court by scoring 27 points, securing 20 rebounds, and providing 10 assists during Monday’s Game 2 against the Lakers in the first round of the playoffs.

The Nuggets secured a 2-0 series advantage after an electrifying comeback victory, with Denver’s Jamal Murray sealing the win with a game-winning buzzer-beater, resulting in a dramatic 101-99 triumph.
