Back in 1985, when the NBA had more than two rounds of the draft, Adams was picked up early by Sacramento in the third. He, however, had his best days elsewhere in another Western Conference team called the Denver Nuggets.

For 79 games in a row, Michael Adams attempted at least a single three point shot and for four seasons, he attempted more shots from the arc than anybody. Averaging a double-double for a huge part of his career with the Nuggets, Adams rejuvenated a Nuggets team with a 54 point showing in 1990-91.

In 1996, with the then Charlotte Hornets, Michael Adams retired having amassed over 9, 500 points and nearly half as many assists.
