Which player is actually 'best' at guarding Nikola Jokic

For whatever reason before the WCF in 2023, there was a conception that Anthony Davis does very well against Nikola Jokic however that narrative has completely flipped.

I've seen Nurkic, Ayton, Draymond and Gobert mentioned before but the facts (stats) seem untrue.

While there might not be a Jokic stopper, is there an actual player that defends Jokic well to the point of keeping him to or below his averages?

I nominate u/hunterwolves18 to be the Grizzlies' new starting C.

No, me.

Unquestionably. Jokic has scored zero points against u/hunterwolves18 in his NBA career.

"hello, u/hunterwolves18 ? This is coach Spo'. I was wondering if you'd like to come join me in m-i-yayo."
