A long road for Denver
The Denver Nuggets’ championship was truly one for the books. Since the appointment of Michael Malone as the team’s head coach and the selection of Nikola Jokic in 2015, the Nuggets has become a team on the rise after reaching the Western Conference Finals during the 2019-20 season, which is the furthest they’ve advanced until this year’s NBA Finals appearance.
After two years of falling short in the playoffs, the Nuggets made key moves to bolster their roster coming into the 2022-23 season, acquiring veterans Bruce Brown and DeAndre Jordan and former NBA champion Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to provide with well-rounded players that can support two-time MVP Nikola Jokic and budding superstar Jamal Murray.
These transactions strengthened their roster and helped them navigate the regular season to become the no. 1 seed in the Western Conference. Their road to their first-ever NBA Finals went through the Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns, and Los Angeles Lakers before facing the Miami Heat.
