The Denver Nuggets have been a staple in the NBA for decades, and this year they finally achieved the ultimate goal of winning the NBA Championship. To commemorate this momentous occasion, many former Nuggets players have come together to celebrate the team’s success.
The most notable former Nugget to join in the celebration was Carmelo Anthony, who played for the team from 2003-2011.

He also took to social media to express his joy and congratulate the team on their victory.
Other former Nuggets players who joined in the celebration included Chauncey Billups, Kenyon Martin, and Marcus Camby.

Martin and Camby also shared their excitement on social media, with Martin writing that “it’s been a long time coming” and Camby saying that he was “so proud of this team and the city of Denver.”
