This year is proving to be a good one for Nikola Jokić. The Serbian signed the richest deal in NBA history with a $264.0 million supermax contract extension after winning his second MVP award and breaking a triple-double record this season. In addition to his professional success, the basketball star is a freshly minted dad. Nikola Jokić’s wife, Natalija Maćešić, gave birth to their first child shortly after his MVP honor, but that news slipped under the radar. The couple is very low-key and don’t often share much about their personal lives. But fans have seen Maćešić at her husband’s games and want to know more about who she is. So we reveal her background in this Natalija Maćešić wiki.

Natalija Maćešić’s Family and Nationality

Natalija Maćešić was born on January 4, 1995, and hails from Sombor in Serbia. Her family has been living there since 1995.

However, Maćešić’s been living in the United States at least since 2013. She initially resided in Oklahoma and moved to Denver in 2015.

Not much is known about Maćešić’s family. From her social media, it appears she has at least two sisters, Maja Maćešić and Dragana Maćešić.
