After Action Report
The Nuggets survived the Hawks 116-114. Nuggets torched the Hawks on the offensive end. The Nuggets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

- Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
