With a 53-29 record, they secured the number one seed in the Western Conference. Denver continued to make noise in the playoffs, where they won all three Western Conference series with only three total losses to clinch a spot in the NBA Finals against the Miami Heat. In the Finals, the Nuggets showed they were the class of the NBA that year, winning in five games for their first championship in franchise history. Aaron Gordon was a big part of this run, as he experienced arguably the best season of his career to date. With 16.3 points and 6.6 rebounds per game, he established himself as a key contributor of the Nuggets starting lineup. During the playoffs, Gordon recorded 13.3 points and 6 rebounds per game, including a game-high 27 points in Game Four of the Finals to put the Nuggets one win away from capturing the title, with them ultimately clinching the championship the next game.This gold basketball is autographed and inscribed by Aaron Gordon with a black paint pen.
