Jamal Murray was fed up with Nikola Jokic's gambling 'luck' after he cleaned up on the team flight

Nikola Jokic is good at everything, it seems.

When the two-time NBA MVP isn’t busy dropping dimes and cashing treys on the basketball court, he’s apparently taking dimes and cashing his earnings on the Denver Nuggets team flight. This according to teammate Jamal Murray, who recently discussed Jokic’s unspecified gambling with Complex Sports.

“He took our money on the plane the other day, so we’re not really happy at him right now,” Murray said. “He just wins for no reason. Like, pure luck this guy wins.”

Jokic was probably winning at some type of card game, but hey, at least Murray and his teammates get to play with Jokic on the court. Winning an NBA title gets everybody paid and keeps the gambling money flowing.
