The information was released by Bennett Durando, of the Denver Post on Tuesday. According to the journalist, the pivot intends to wait until next offseason to begin talks about renewing his contract with the franchise.<\/p><p>Jokic still has at least two guaranteed years left on his contract, plus a player option for 2027-28 that could extend his contract by up to three seasons. On Tuesday, he became eligible for a three-year, $212 million extension with the Nuggets. However, waiting until 2025 is the best financial option, as he could receive up to $80 million more.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Nikola Jokic has told the Nuggets he doesn&rsquo;t plan to sign a contract extension this offseason &#128064;<br><br>(via Denver Post) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/QEvq6LnxTR\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/QEvq6LnxTR<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Basketball Forever (@bballforever_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bballforever_\/status\/1942705474505461795?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 8, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>It is worth noting that the franchise&rsquo;s management understands the decision.
