Nikola Jokic isn’t super well known for his passing, but maybe he needs to be added to the growing list of solid passing big men after he dropped this sweet behind the back pass to Kenneth Faried.

Sure, the play doesn’t start off too great with him rebounding his own miss, but the recovery to Faried being in the right place, at the right time, made the play absolutely worth it.

Side note that might go unnoticed to the untrained eye. Keep watching Faried all the way to the end of the vine and he starts high stepping his way down the court. He clearly knows the greatness he just witnessed.
