Each weekday (and some weekends!), Nugg Love will bring you a round-up of Nuggets-related news from around the web, a recap of some of our own recent posts you may have missed, and even some non-sports nuggets we think you might like. Enjoy!
From Around the Web
- Mark Kiszla of The Denver Post thinks the Nuggets need to “gamble on a big move” like trading up in the draft or trying to land Kevin Love.
- This should come as no surprise given his dunking ability, but apparently Nate Robinson always had hops: Until last year, he held the Washington state high school record in the 110-meter high hurdles.
- Nuggets Assistant Coach Lester Conner was being considered for the head coaching job at Oregon State University, where he played college ball. The job ultimately went to Wayne Tinkle.

Non-Sports Nuggets
- Have you ever wondered what it would look like if you wrapped an alligator in bacon, stuffed a chicken in its mouth, and threw it on the grill? Well, wonder no more:
