George Karl Thanks His Staff

Following the Nuggets 2005-06 season 44-win season, in which they won their division for the first time since 1987-88, head coach George Karl wanted to thank his staff.

The Sporting News’ Dave D'Alessandro reported in the July 23, 2006 edition, “George Karl recently pulled more than $100,000 out of his bank account and handed it to about 40 Nuggets employees, ostensibly to thank them for their roles in the team's first division title in 18 years. Karl's assistant coaches got around $5,000 and even ballboys got a few hundred bucks.”
