As the years pass, Nikola Vučević remains a "double-double" machine - the Montenegrin basketball player last night at the 22nd game of Chicago in the new NBA season had double-digit points and rebounds for the 15th time.
In addition, our ace improved his three-point shooting percentage (47,6), so his club published an interesting comparison with another Nikola and one of the best centers in the world - Jokić.
The Montenegrin and Serbian center are the only two players in the strongest league in the world who average more than 20 points, 10 rebounds and two three-pointers, but with a shooting percentage of 55 percent from the field and 45 percent for three points.
Vucevic's current average is 20,9 points, 10 rebounds and 2,2 triples per game, while Jokic scores 29,6 points, has 13,2 rebounds and also 2,2 triples.
And while the Montenegrin is still one of the Bulls' most important weapons in the attack, the American media once again started the story of his possible departure from Chicago.
As "Fadeaway World" writes (Fadeaway World), Vučević is wanted by Goden State, in order to have a dynamic center in addition to the legendary Steph Curry.
The Warriors are reportedly proposing a trade that would give Chicago Deantonio Melton, Gary Payton II and two second-round draft picks in 2026 and 2029 for Vucevic.
Although the same media raises the question of how Vucevic's style would fit into Golden State's game, it also emphasizes that by bringing him, the "Warriors" could certainly take a key step towards success in the playoffs.
The reason why the club from San Francisco wants a good center is that Tracy Jackson-Davis has not proven to be a real starter, while another legend of the team, Draymong Green, cannot carry Golden State alone throughout the season.
If the offer really comes, apparently the Chicago Bulls will not have anything against it, since they have already planned to trade the two biggest stars, Vucevic and Zak Lavin.
