After Action Report
The Nuggets ran roughshod over the Hornets 111-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
