Jokic: Salaries Can Be Delayed in Europe After Losing 1-2 Games

Denver Nuggets' Serbian star Nikola Jokic once again addressed the pressure gap between US and European basketball. Jokic answered reporters' questions ahead of his team's game against the Indiana Pacers in Mexico.

Jokic had previously drawn attention with comments suggesting NBA players should spend some time playing in Europe. This time he said players in Europe play under slightly more pressure than those in the NBA.

Jokic noted that in Europe, when 1-2 games are sometimes lost, players may not be able to receive their salaries until the third game.
