His doctor told Marvin “Henchi” Graves not to be a hero, just a fan.

Graves was aiming to be just that Monday night after a Denver Nuggets fan gave up his suite at the Pepsi Center to allow the 64-year-old Graves to watch the team take on the Los Angeles Lakers.

The fan, Dan Cook, made his offer after reading about Graves in The Denver Post. Graves, who has terminal cancer, is one of two lead singers in the Freddi-Henchi R&B Band.

Now living at HospiceCare of Boulder and Broomfield Counties, Graves on Sunday asked that his feeding tube be removed. He also expressed a simple desire: to see the Nuggets play Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.

Several offers from ticket holders flooded the hospice Monday. The one that made the most sense was the one offering the suite, said George Stark, a physician at the hospice.

“He’ll have a nurse and his partner with him,” Stark said. “This worked for everyone.

“I told him that he is under no obligation to go or even stay very long. It was just important to just be able to go.”

Graves said Monday afternoon he was overwhelmed at the offers for tickets. “I really appreciated it,” he said. “This is something.”
