I voted for Greek Freak.

Patty Mills

That's his nickname...right?

I always wondered why Sprewel's folks named him Latrell. Like Andy Anderson or Tommy Thomas.

Is today national name day or something?

The Joker = Jokic

This one gets my vote.
I think The Joker is my favorite for a relevant player.  However, I'm still partial to Sauce Castillo as my favorite NBA nickname largely because of it's origin story.

I was going to mention the Polish Hammer.

I love Boogie, because it’s become synonymous with his name.
