Nikola Jokic Used To Drink Three Liters Of Coke Per Day

Nikola Jokic Used To Drink Three Liters Of Coke Per Day

Before his days in the NBA, Nikola Jokic used to drink three liters of Coke per day. This is not an exaggeration as his diet before the Denver Nuggets was rough.

In ESPN’s Baxter Holmes article detailing the one-time champ, he revealed that after Denver drafted him, he spent a month at P3 Applied Sports Science in Santa Barbara.

For those that don’t know, P3 Applied Sports Science is a place where athletes go to get the correcting dieting and training to become their best selves for any sport. They have biomechanists, data scientists, psychical therapists, and strength coaches helping athletes. Plus, P3 is known to use advanced technologies to help athletes.

This is why Jokic went to them, his basketball was fine, but his body was not. The Joker revamped his diet, dropped the Coke habit, and started to form into the player we all know and love.

Jokic even admitted that while his basketball game was good, he needed to work on his body seriously.
