The Nuggets Are Thankful For: Denver’s Home Court Advantage

As of right now, the Nuggets don’t have much to celebrate on the court or in the front office.

However, they should be happy about, and thankful for, one of the best home court advantages in the NBA. Dating back to the 2007-2008 season, the Nuggets are one of the best teams at home, posting a regular season record of 216-69 in that span.

A lot of the Nuggets’ success at home is due in large part to the raucous home crowd and elevation in Denver, making difficult for opponents to adjust and focus, and a true home court advantage.
