The NBA is currently investigating a heated exchanging during the Denver Nuggets versus Los Angeles Lakers matchup, between Nikola Jokic's brothers and fans at Ball Arena.

Strahinja Jokic was seen bulldozing through fans en route to punching one male spectator. The entire footage was caught on video, with the incident occurring just after the Nuggets secured a comeback win over Los Angeles.

This isn't the first time Jokic's brother has been involved in an incident. He's been known to be aggressive verbally and physically to anyone that disrespects him or his family.

It's unknown what the spectator may have told Strahinja, but the NBA is going through a thorough investigation to examine the extent of the incident, per Michael Babcock at TMZ.
