Garnett called Jokic the modern-day Chamberlain alongside Hall of Fame forward Paul Pierce in a recent episode of KG Certified. “Joker is Wilt. Joker is doing Wilt [Chamberlain] like s***, bro,” Garnett said.

NBA legends Kevin Garnett and Shaquille O’Neal expressed their admiration for Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets, praising his consistency and even comparing him to what Wilt Chamberlain used to do.

Another day, another historic feat for Nikola Jokic. On Thursday, the Nuggets star became the first player since Wilt Chamberlain in 1968 to register a 35/20/15 game. Jokic posted his fifth consecutive triple-double — 35 points, 22 rebounds, 17 assists — as the Nuggets beat the Kings, 132-123, to extend their winning streak to four.
