After Action Report
The Nuggets took care of the Hornets 124-111. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
