Nikola Jokic reveals favorite dinosaur amid Jurassic Quest visit with daughter Ognjena

Nikola Jokic and his daughter Ognjena went viral on social media on Sunday when they were seen visiting Jurassic Quest at the Colorado Convention Center.

Jokic was surprised when reporters asked him about their family time. He had no choice but to reveal his favorite dinosaur even though he prefers horses.

In his postgame interview, "The Joker" was asked what was his favorite dinosaur from his visit at the Jurassic Quest. The dinosaur exhibit was in Denver over the weekend, so the two-time MVP and his family went to see it.

He was in disbelief that people knew where they went but still answered the question.

"How do you guys know that?" Jokic said. "Nice, to be honest, I forgot every name of the dinosaurs. I don't even know, it's really hard to pronounce it, so I don't know. The one with big, like the one that eats grass. The big huge one."

Nikola Jokic was probably talking about either a Brachiosaurus or a Diplodocus.

They are two of the largest grass-eating dinosaur species. Both had long necks, but a Brachiosaurus was taller than a Diplodocus, while the Diplodocus was longer than a Brachiosaurus.

Nevertheless, Jokic appeared surprised when the reporters found out that he was at Jurassic Quest with his family. He paused before an aghast reaction made everyone laugh before politely answering the question.

A fan captured Jokic with his daughter Ognjena and uploaded it on social media. It went viral quickly because it was a rare sighting of the two-time MVP with his family.

He's not on any social media platforms, so fans are not up-to-date with his personal life.
