After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets demolished the Kings 126-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. The Kings 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. Garbage time started early.
