There were plenty of dramatic wins for the Nuggets in their 2019 postseason run. Their Game 7 win over the Spurs on April 27, 2019, however, might have been a coming-of-age performance for the eighth-youngest playoff team in NBA history.
A year to this date, Denver faced a significant challenge against San Antonio – one of the NBA’s storied franchises. While the Spurs didn’t have the core of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, which helped them win five titles, the team still featured legendary coach Gregg Popovich and talented veterans in LaMarcus Aldridge, DeMar DeRozan and Rudy Gay.
