After Action Report

In Denver, the Grizzlies snuck past the Nuggets 106-102. Grizzlies' offense had its way with the Nuggets. Grizzlies' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
