TORONTO — Happy holidays, Nuggets fans. One stocking stuffer suggestion for your loved ones: a DVD or Blu-ray of Nikola Jokic acting in a commercial.In a rare display of public persona beyond basketball, the two-time NBA MVP appeared alongside second-year wing Peyton Watson in a pair of advertisements for Hotels.com that made the rounds on social media this week and will air on television during the slate of Christmas Day games. The Nuggets host the Warriors in one of five holiday matchups.Jokic and Watson filmed the commercials while in Los Angeles for a pair of preseason games against the Clippers in October, Watson told The Denver Post.

And not because they stormed out of the gates like his first New Orleans team did in 2006.Just the opposite, in fact. Because despite all of Denver’s flaws and despite the dreadful 1-5 start to the season, the Broncos somehow ended up with a postseason berth sitting on a silver platter, waiting to be taken.The NFL isn’t normally so forgiving, mind you. It’s an attrition game, one where if the collective toll of injuries and close games don’t make the difference, losing your first three home games to bad teams almost certainly will.Not this team, though. And that makes this opportunity one they cannot let slip through...
