After Action Report
The Nuggets squeaked past the Grizzlies 122-120. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Nuggets stayed locked in; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
