After Action Report
The Nuggets snuck past the Raptors 118-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Nuggets stayed locked in. The Nuggets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
