After Action Report
The Nuggets snuck past the Rockets 104-99. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nuggets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it

- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
