Novak Djokovic impresses fans with basketball shooting display

Novak Djokovic showcased his basketball skills at the Fanatics Fest in New York, sinking three consecutive three-pointers at the NBA station. The tennis star's performance drew praise from fans for his athletic versatility.

Djokovic attended the annual event at the Javits Center on July 19, 2026, where major US leagues set up activity stations for athletes. He took on the three-point challenge and made the shots while hyping himself up after each one.

Other athletes present included Lionel Messi, Kevin Durant and Tom Brady. Djokovic has long followed basketball and recently attended the EuroLeague final to support his team Crvena Zvezda.

Fans reacted strongly online, with one noting his "elite motor skills" and another suggesting he "could’ve been a generational PG." The display came shortly after his five-hour Wimbledon match against Felix Auger-Aliassime.
