The Denver Nuggets are an up-and-coming basketball team, but what would happen if these stellar athletes did not play basketball? Here is a look at their Olympic alter-egos.

With the Rio Olympics just around the corner, we will have a little fun with them and our Denver Nuggets. Theoretically, we are going to say that each Denver Nugget player does not play basketball. We will take a look at what each of their alter-egos would be.

When I say “alter-ego”, I mean what different sport/position each Nugget would play in order to compete with the other top-of-the-line competition in Rio. With sports such as golf, soccer, weightlifting, and several others- each Nugget could be a perfect fit to compete in another sport. Some may shock you, and if you think some sport may be a better fit, do not be afraid to drop off a comment!

Well, without further ado, we will start our Denver Nugget alter-egos.
