After Action Report
The Nuggets snuck past the Wizards 87-82. The Wizards couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. The Nuggets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Wizards bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
