After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets buried the Hornets 115-92. Nuggets' offense had its way with the Hornets. The Nuggets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
