After Action Report
The Nuggets held off the Lakers 105-97. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. The Nuggets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
