After Action Report
The Nuggets shocked the Raptors 117-110. The better team simply showed up tonight. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Raptors. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
