In this story:

One of the NBA's most private players, Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic had more of his personal life on display this summer than ever before. Very reserved, Jokic found himself at the center of several viral videos this summer, often seen partying and having fun. Because he is so reserved, and even comes across disinterested at times, many of thee videos were surprising for fans. That said, almost everyone enjoyed seeing the Finals MVP celebrate his incredible postseason run.

While none of these videos were negative, Jokic still doesn't feel people were supposed to see them, and said per ESPN's Ohm Youngmisuk, "People are bored. Same as [me], they live a boring life so they want to record people a little bit more. You're not supposed to see [all] that."

It makes sense why Jokic would not want all of his offseason moments to go viral, because the Nuggets star is not on social media, does not do many interviews, and always goes back home in the summer. While the Nuggets star did not plan to have these moments go viral, many of them did, and it gave fans a rare look into his summer of celebration.

Now back in Denver, Jokic has gotten back to work as he and the Nuggets prepare to defend their championship with another one this season.
