The Denver Nuggets have had quite a bit of star power throughout their history contrary to popular belief. We all know about Carmelo Anthony, Allen Iverson, Dikembe Mutombo, Chauncey Billups, Alex English, Dan Issell and Kiki Vandeweghe.
However, there is another player who belongs in this elite rank who often gets overlooked. That would be the one and only Fat Lever.
Many forget, Lever was English’s co-star during the 1980’s. He knew how to stuff the stat sheet and is one of the most underrated point guards in NBA history as well.
Per basketball reference, Lever is currently ranked 73rd in career assists with a total of 4,696 and finished in the top 10 for four seasons in this category.
