Nikola Jokić is a professional athlete — one of the best basketball players of all time. But the 30-year-old Denver Nuggets center's greatest asset isn't his height, light feet, or skill with the ball. According to the rest of the NBA, it's his brain. "He’s just, I mean, probably the smartest player that’s ever played," says his teammate Christian Braun. Opponents like the Minnesota Timberwolves' Mike Conley, Golden State Warriors' Draymond Green, and the Warriors' coach, Steve Kerr, agree. “It goes so far beyond the skill level with Jokić. It’s the demeanor, it’s the competitiveness, it’s the intelligence. He is absolutely one of the smartest players ever,” says Kerr. For The Ringer, Michael Pina looks at Jokić's brain power — photographic memory, decision-making skills, deep understanding of his sport — how others have tried to quantify it, and the advantages it brings to his team.
