Denver Nuggets mural on Colfax grabbing Nuggets Nation’s attention
Artist Thomas “Detour” Evans stands in front of his mural of Nuggets stars Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. (Denver7)A local artist is paying homage to the Denver Nuggets as they prepare to compete in the NBA Finals for the first time in team history.
“Very colorful, very vibrant, just very realistic” is how Kerry Merrell describes the mural, located next to the 7/11 on Colfax near High and Race streets.
Merrell stopped by to snap a picture early Monday after hearing about the mural on social media.
“It’s wonderfully done. It’s fun to see the city alive right now with the sport,” Merrell said.
