The Denver Nuggets selected Serbian forward Nikola Jokic with the No. 41 overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft on Thursday night.

At 6-foot-11 and over 250 pounds, Nokic has a body that's ready for the NBA. His skill level may be, too, as he blends an exceptional basketball IQ with deft passing and great range. Whether he'll come over or not is unclear - he was close to withdrawing from the draft at the last minute - but at 19 years old, there's no harm in him spending another development year working on his defense with Sabac.

He has great size for the position, but won't be ready to contribute in the near future. However, with depth on the roster, he can be stashed or brought along slowly.
