After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets pulled away from the Lakers 120-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
