After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Nuggets survived the Lakers 93-90. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nuggets. Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
