Nikola Jokic briefly suspected someone had taken his underwear after the Denver Nuggets fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves on April 26, 2026.
The two-time MVP made the remark in the locker room in the moments following the game, according to the New York Post. Jokic noticed the garment was missing and told teammates he believed it had been stolen.
No additional details about how the item disappeared or whether it was later recovered were immediately available. The Nuggets did not comment on the incident.
The episode added an unexpected twist to an already disappointing night for Denver, which had just dropped the matchup to its Western Conference rival.
