After Action Report

In a track meet, the Nuggets squeaked past the Lakers 110-107. The breakneck pace played right into Nuggets' hands. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Nuggets. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
