Denver Nuggets’ players Emmanuel Mudiay and Will Barton participated in an NBA Math Hoops Game at Bradley International School in Denver on Wednesday evening.

The Denver Nuggets and Learn Fresh have partnered to introduce NBA Math Hoops to 72 after-school programs throughout the Denver-Aurora Metropolitan Area. The program is centered on a fast-paced basketball board game that allows students to learn fundamental math skills through direct engagement with the statistics of their favorite NBA and WNBA players.

The Nuggets were the second NBA team to implement the program and have involved organizations in the Denver area including; Denver Public Schools, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Denver, YMCA of Metropolitan Denver, DU Bridge Project, Summer Scholars, Athletics & Beyond, and Denver Parks and Recreation.
