Originally founded by Bill Ringsby as a way to promote his trucking company (the team was nicknamed for \"Rocket Truck Lines\"), the Rockets made the playoffs in their inaugural season and remained a competitive ABA franchise throughout the league's nine-year run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rockets are forever associated with two unforgettable players. Spencer Haywood was signed in 1969 as a 19-year-old after winning Olympic gold in the 1968 Mexico City Games; he averaged 30.0 points and 19.5 rebounds as a rookie, won ABA Rookie of the Year and MVP in the same season, and forced the league's hardship-rule lawsuit that eventually opened pro basketball to underclassmen. Larry Jones — a six-foot-two scoring guard — averaged better than 25 points per game in three different seasons. The franchise also made an offer to Sam Jones (the Celtics legend) and Wilt Chamberlain, both of whom passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rockets rebranded as the Denver Nuggets in 1974 to avoid confusion with the NBA's expansion Houston Rockets, then joined the NBA in the 1976 ABA-NBA merger. The Nuggets continue today, but the seven Rockets seasons remain a foundational chapter in Denver pro basketball history. The Royal Retros Denver Rockets collection celebrates that ABA-era history with apparel for collectors, vintage-basketball fans and Mile High City sports historians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 32px;\" class=\"tagline\"\u003eDenver Rockets at Royal Retros — Authentic Throwbacks.
