On April 5, 2023, the Nuggets clinched the top seed in the Western Conference for the first time in franchise history.[1] In the first round of the playoffs, the Nuggets eliminated their division rivals, the Minnesota Timberwolves, in five games. In the conference semifinals, they defeated the 4th seeded Phoenix Suns in six games to advance to the Western Conference Finals for the second time in four years. The Nuggets made the Finals for the first time in history by sweeping the 7th seeded Los Angeles Lakers in the Conference Finals to advance to the 2023 NBA Finals.

On June 12, 2023, Denver won their first championship in franchise history after a 94–89 win against the Miami Heat, defeating them in 5 games. They joined the San Antonio Spurs as the only former ABA franchises to win a championship in the NBA, although neither team had won a title in the old league.
