Alex, Erick, & Zane

Our names are Alex, Erick, and Zane. Our topic is the Denver Nuggets. We chose this topic because it was the most interesting team that we could find.
The first year they started was 1967. They used to be the Denver Rockets. After seven seasons of playing as the Denver Rockets they changed their name to the Denver Nuggets. The Denver Nuggets were born in 1974. They had to change their name because they wanted to move from the American Basketball Association (ABA) to the National Basketball Association (NBA) but there was already a team using the name Rockets. The first mascot was Maxie the Miner. They used Maxie the Miner into the early 1980s. They started playing in the Pepsi Center in 1999. They have never won the championship!!!
This connects to us because we go to the Nuggets games when the Lakers come every time they play. We’re Alex, Erick, and Zane, and this is our community.
