Terrell Davis tells TMZ Sports if Nikola Jokic can win the NBA title this year, it'd 'cement' his status as an all-time Denver great.
... but he did say a championship would put Jokic right there with the city's all-time greats.Davis said this title would carry some more weight than others in Denver sports history ... as it'd be their first NBA one.
"When you bring a city its only championship, you're going to be held to a really, really high place there," the former running back said."And, I think Jokic is on his way."Of course, Davis would know a thing or two about the matter ... he said following his first Super Bowl win with the Broncos in 1998, it changed the way fans interacted with him around the city forever.
Davis promises to keep cheering on Jokic too -- despite his incident at the Nuggets vs. Heat Game 2 on Sunday night.
