September 29th, today, the Denver Nuggets held a new season of media people's activities. At the event, Nuggets GM Tengzell talked about the contract renewal of the team's star Nikola Jokic: "No one can be told, but both of us are in good spirits at the moment."

According to the Denver Post reporter Bennett Durando, sources said that Jokic has informed the Nuggets that he will not renew his contract early this offseason and he plans to wait until next summer to negotiate contracts.
