After Action Report
The Nuggets fended off the Hawks 121-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hawks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Nuggets bench chemistry carried them. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
