Nuggets Champion Shares Message for Deion Sanders and Colorado Football

In this story:
While the Denver Nuggets are the NBA champions, they aren't the only sports team having fun in Colorado this summer. With the arrival of Deion Sanders, the Colorado Buffaloes have taken the sports world by storm, and have already surpassed their win total from last season with some impressive early season performances.
The Nuggets have been big supporters of the Buffaloes this summer, with several of their players making appearances at Colorado football games. The NBA champions also have some talented football players on their team, with Nikola Jokic of course having a quarterback arm, and some of their wings having some impressive wide receiver skills.
Recently showing off his football skills, Nuggets wing Peyton Watson made an impressive one-handed catch in the gym, and shared a message for Coach Prime and Colorado Football:
yea this was special!! somebody tell Coach Prime and the Buffs i’m ready to take my talents to CU😂💪🏾 https://t.co/xzCP1zSfY3

Everyone wants in on what the Buffaloes have going right now, and Watson shared this hilarious message for Sanders and the team. Having brought out several Nuggets players already this season, Sanders and the Buffaloes have embraced their connection with the NBA champions in their state. It is an exciting time for Colorado sports right now, as the Nuggets look to defend their title while the Buffaloes continue their impressive season.
If the Buffaloes end up needing another receiver, Watson joked that he is available and ready to make plays.
