After Action Report

The Hornets outlasted the Nuggets 99-93. The Nuggets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Nuggets couldn't shake the cold spell. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
