After Action Report
The Nuggets outlasted the Raptors 126-119. The Raptors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Nuggets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Early returns: the Nuggets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
