DENVER, June 1, 2023 – The NBA’s Larry O’Brien Trophy has reached new and extreme heights by skydiving into downtown Denver to arrive for Game 1 of the 2023 NBA Finals presented by YouTube TV, which tips off tonight on ABC at 6:30 p.m. MT / 8:30 p.m. ET. Check out the full video here.

The skydive, which was executed in celebration of the start of the NBA Finals 2023 featuring the Denver Nuggets vs. Miami Heat, culminates a monthlong “bucket list” that has seen the Larry O’Brien Trophy engage with fans and celebrities at some of the most prestigious events and iconic landmarks before reaching its ultimate destination – the hands of the 2023 NBA Champion.

The Larry O’Brien Trophy, which was harnessed to a professional skydiver and flanked by two skydivers wearing Nuggets and Heat jerseys, landed outside of Empower Field at Mile High and was greeted by ESPN’s Malika Andrews before she drove it with a police escort to Ball Arena.

The Larry O’Brien Trophy’s bucket list tour will continue through the Finals and can be followed at @nbafinalstrophy (Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and Tik Tok).
