Bruce Brown: Pumpkin Pie

It doesn’t get much sweeter than pumpkin pie and the new addition of Bruce Brown in a Nuggets uniform. Brown has gone down easily since joining the crew and has added spice and flavor to a Denver roster that hungered for his caliber of play.

Brown has started, come off the bench, and been thrown in as a tasty dessert for the Nuggets this year, and so far earned every bit of the $6.5 million Denver sliced out of their free agent budget to bring him in.

Much like with the timing of pumpkin pie, Brown has saved his best stuff for the fall and winter months, turning it on lately with his first career triple-double in the OT win against the Thunder on Wednesday.

Things should only get sweeter for Brown as he gets more comfortable in his ever-changing role for the Nuggets. Often the sixth man when everyone is healthy, Brown is the perfect way to top off a delicious Denver holiday dinner.

There are so many options when constructing your own perfect holiday plate, and the Nuggets certainly have enough skilled athletes to match whatever meal may come to mind. Happy holidays to everyone and may the Nuggets continue to bring cheer and joy this season and for many to come!
