The Denver Nuggets have become the latest sports club in Stan Kroenke's business empire to taste success, after they became NBA champions for a first time.
The Colorado outfit won their first ever title after 47 years of waiting, sealing the championship with a 94-89 win over the Miami Heat, to win the series 4-1. After finishing first in the Western Conference, they continued their dazzling form, with a near immaculate showing in the play-offs, recording ten victories out of their 11 post-season clashes.
Incredibly, the landmark success for talisman Nikola Jokić and his side is the fourth major tournament win for a team owned by the Kroenke Sports & Entertainment group, which owns a host of sports teams across two continents, in the last year. Adding to the success of the Denver Nuggets, the LA Rams baseball team became Super Bowl champions last year, with Colorado Mammoth also winning the National Lacrosse League last June.
