Nikola Jokic was the most important player on the Nuggets' roster, delivering historic numbers during the playoff run.

However, the local fans accidentally did not offer the best gift to him.

Jokic's wife Natalija was hit by a beer can during the parade when the entire Jokic family as well as some other Nuggets players were standing on top of the bus while driving across the crowded city.

Natalija was hit in the mouth area and was later seen holding her hand over the mouth in pain. The beer can flew inches away from Jokic's baby daughter Ognjena.

It seemed like the beer can was thrown to the players from the ground level so that they could drink it. The beer can seems to have ricocheted off another player's shoulder.
