Tonight will be life-changing for the 60 players selected in the NBA Draft. Only a small percentage of people will ever know the feeling. Of the group that does, there is an undeniable bond of fraternity. In that spirit, several current and former Nuggets took to social media on Thursday to offer the well-wishes and fond memories of their draft day.
On #TBT (Throwback Thursday for the non-hastaggers out there), Wilson Chandler posted a picture from his draft day in 2007, wishing good luck to everyone drafted tonight.
