    Now that he's back on the Nuggets, Arron Afflalo believes Denver has the makings of a championship club.

    Afflalo was re-acquired by the Nuggets in a draft-night trade with the Orlando Magic after being traded as part of a four-team, 12-player deal in 2012 that helped Dwight Howard go to the Lakers.

    Now that he's back in Denver, he's thinking big.

    "Being traded for me is a positive experience," Afflalo told BasketballInsiders.com. "I really enjoyed my time in Orlando. [General manager] Rob [Hennigan], [assistant GM] Scott [Perry], Coach [Jacque Vaughn], the assistants and all of my teammates really helped me develop as a player and as a person over the past two seasons so I'm very thankful for my opportunity there.

    "I'm happy to be back in Denver, I got some very familiar teammates. I believe this is a championship team under the right mindset and coaching."
