In assigning all of the players on the Nuggets’ roster to their corresponding zoo animals, I have come up with the following list, which is a work in progress:
Wilson Chandler: Lion
Kenneth Faried: Kangaroo
Ty Lawson: Otter
Randy Foye: Tapir or Koala
JaVale McGee: Giraffe
Nate Robinson: Meerkat
Anthony Randolph: That kid on a field trip who cries all the time
Timofey Mozgov: Grizzly Bear
Andre Miller: Orangutan
Quincy Miller: N/A
Danilo Gallinari: Corpse of cute panda bear
Evan Fournier: French Person
Darrell Arthur: William Gates from Hoop Dreams
Jordan Hamilton: Goat
Okay, so some of them aren’t technically zoo animals, but as I said, this is a work in progress. It’s harder than it looks! I dare you to try it. I bet your list would suck.
