After Action Report

The Nuggets handled the Lakers 109-98. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
