Denver Nuggets History
One of the founding teams of the American Basketball Association in 1967, the Denver Nuggets franchise was originally known as the Denver Rockets. They preemptively changed their name to the Nuggets before the 1974–75 season, anticipating a move to the NBA (where Houston’s team already had the name). In their nine ABA seasons, the Nuggets made the playoffs seven times — losing in the finals to the New York Nets in the league's final year.
They were one of four ABA teams annexed to the NBA in 1976 and immediately were one of the most successful teams, winning the Midwest Division two straight years behind future Hall of Famers David Thompson and Dan Issel. In 1980, the arrival of another future Hall of Famer, high-scoring forward Alex English, began a run of nine consecutive seasons in the playoffs. Coach Doug Moe's offensive-minded squads made it past the first round of the playoffs four times, falling three times in the conference semifinals and once in the conference finals, in 1985 to the Los Angeles Lakers.
The team had only one winning season in the 1990s, but it was a memorable one. After finishing 42-40 to sneak into the playoffs as the eighth seed in the 1993–94 season, they upset the top-seed Seattle Supersonics in the first round of the playoffs, thanks in no small part to center Dikembe Mutombo's heroics.
Led by 2003 first-round draft pick Carmelo Anthony, the Nuggets reversed their fortunes to post 10 straight winning seasons beginning with the 2003–04 season. The Nuggets won their first NBA championship in 2023, led by two-time league MVP and Finals MVP Nikola Joki?, who collected his third regular season MVP in 2024.

Denver Nuggets at Ball Arena?
The Nuggets play their home games at Ball Arena, which is a short walk from historic Larimer Square in bustling downtown Denver. The venue, with its sculpture-laden Grand Atrium, opened in 1999 as part of the city's six-year boom in sporting venues, which included new football and baseball facilities.
The venue replaced the venerable McNichols Sports Arena, which the Nuggets called home for more than two decades.

This was one of the best sporting events I have ever attended. Top 4. Absolutely unforgettable.
It was my first time attending a Nuggets game and it was a really fun night. The game was fun and I liked the announcer and DJ. I think the entertainment in between play was varied and enjoyable. I would go again.
Love watching this team play. No selfish superstars. A true team every minute for the entire game.
This game was unlike any other game. The energy from the fans and the athletes was top notch. Very similar to let's say... game 4 or 5 of a playoff series game. I feel like the energy level is always taken up a notch or 2 when facing the closely matched Timberwolves, but this took it to a new level for sure! In addition to all that, it was fan appreciation night. The nuggets were throwing signed paraphernalia out to the crowd directly following the game. We traveled from Grand Junction and l have Progressive MS so this is a very rare occasion for me. There were 10 of us which included 2 of our boys and our niece. They tried tirelessly the entire game to appear on the jumbotron and finally did in the 4th quarter right before we caught a signed mini ball. Needless to say, we were not disappointed in the least. Thank you, Nuggets for making this such a memorable experience for us.
The game was a blast! Everything went smoothly, from parking in the RAV4 Lot, entry into Ball Arena, to exiting nearly 19k fans. The game was a nail-biter but the Nuggets pulled off a win!
5 * s The Wheelchair accessible accommodations were awesome! Everyone was so nice and helpful.. I would love to be able to go again!
We had great seats with good views of the court. Loved the ability to see the view before buying. The fan experience at Ball Arena is the best. Good assortment of Food, Drink and Merchandise available
Everything was five stars. My only constructive feedback: At halftime, I felt bad for the woman who was trying to convey her message at the same time the little kids were playing a mini game on the court. She was constantly having to speak over the crowd cheering for the kids. It felt like she should’ve had a minute or two before or after the kids’ game so that she had a proper audience and was given the attention one would give to another who is speaking from the heart.
The Nuggets looked great. My seats were in a good location, so it was fun to watch them up close.
Had a great time. The tickets were good as I could see the court very well. Entertaining.
Was easy to use a lot of emails giving you heads up and instructions to use which was helpful since normally do old school way tickets in hand
It is a lot of fun to go out and see them live. The Nuggets have a great overall entertaining experience.
It was a great experience! The staff really friendly, the crowd was on fire and the team… spectacular.
I've been to many live events. This was obnoxious. The music ruined the experience.
I get pumping up the crowd. I like high intensity music as part of sports. This was so over the top though that many around me had their fingers in their ears. My wife had to get ear plugs at guest services. I know loud. I've seen the Celtics in The Garden and the Chiefs in Arrowhead, both this year. Worse yet, the music never stopped unless the Nuggets had the ball. You can't hear anything at all on the court and we we're in the 7th row. The music simply ruins the experience you pay for when you come to see a game live. I gave it 3 stars because it was fun seeing the game. I love the Celtics, and the Nuggets are the champs. The food and drink options were also decent. I'd give the "entertainment"component a single star, because the system wouldn't let me give zero. So, would I come back to Ball for a Nuggets game? Probably not.
We have ate at The Gondolier for years because it has the best Italian red sauce in Boulder, as well as incredible homemade pasta. Last night was no exception — it was great and up to our expectations. Everything was good, including the service. We will go back again.
Great seats, and a lot of fun --- I would do it again
This was a great event from arrival to end. Everything went smoothly the staff was helpful and not to mention that game was a success. I am planning a return trip to catch another event!
Great stadium, overall wonderful experience, happy we were able to attend!
The game and the place experience was great, it is a good located Arena and the expedited entrance to the stadium was very good. The exit could be a more faster if more staff promotes exit doors and the price for the alcoholic beverages is too high.
