Nuggets Owner Awkwardly Spoke To Lisa Salters' Ear Instead Of Microphone During Post Finals Interview
The Denver Nuggets NBA championship celebration was a big moment for the city and the franchise, which won the title eight years after selecting Nikola Jokic as the No. 41 overall pick in the draft.
During the post-game interviews, every important person for this title spoke, including the team's owner. Stan Kroenke starred in an awkward moment with ESPN reporter Lisa Salters, speaking to her ear when the microphone was right in front of him.
This situation raised some eyebrows around the league, as he acted in an odd way instead of addressing his players and the fans in attendance. It's unclear why he made this decision, but in the end, Salters made it work, and Kroenke's congratulations were heard by fans in the arena and watching on TV.
The Denver Nuggets finished a terrific season where they secured the No. 1 seed (53-29) in the Western Conference for the first time in franchise history. They went through big rivals in the playoffs, taking out the Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns, and Los Angeles Lakers, respectively, before beating the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals.
Now, the Nuggets have signed their name on the list of NBA champions, and this team won't go away that easily.
Denver Nuggets Owner Has Won Multiple Titles In The Past Year And A Half
Stan Kroenke has gotten used to speaking after a championship, as he's won four championships with his franchises in the past year and a half. It all started with the Los Angeles LA Rams in the 2022 Super Bowl, then the Colorado Mammoth of the National Lacrosse League became the 2022 NLL Champions, and the Colorado Avalanche won the 2022 Stanley Cup.
The Nuggets are the last team to join this honored list, and Kroenke is really happy about that. They assembled a well-rounded team that went all the way to the title, making a statement series after series.
Nikola Jokic won Finals MVP honors, confirming he's the best player in the NBA right now. The Joker averaged 30.2 points, 14.0 rebounds and 7.2 assists against the Miami Heat.
