Denver Nugget’s Christian Braun took on what might be his most fierce challenge yet, playing kids in a game of connect four.
The adorable video was posted to the Denver Nuggets social media pages with the Boys & Girls Club Denver tagged. “There’s just no strategy,” he says at the beginning of the view as the kids laugh at his expense. Throughout the clip, Braun mentally prepares his next move, only to fall short with a record of 3-3.

In a recent post, the BGC shared that they celebrated their new “STEM lab at our Arthur E. Johnson Club.” Thanking the NBA, Nuggets, Kroenke Sports Charities, and Kroenke Sports & Entertainment.
“I grew up around the Boys and Girls Club, and this opportunity is a great opportunity for you guys to really dream,” said Nuggets point guard Ish Smith about the renovated STEM Lab to NBA.com. “And so use this to follow your dreams, and so with a community like this, you have to use it and soak it all in.”
With the new collaboration, Adam Silver, the NBA Commissioner, elaborated on the statements sharing that “dreaming big doesn’t just apply to hoop dreams.”
“The reason these players are here, as great as they are in basketball, is because they worked hard,” said Silver. “They decided they wanted to be great. And whether it’s basketball, whether you want to have a job like mine in the League Office or some of my colleagues here, it’s going to come from using this club and working incredibly hard.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
