After Action Report

The Nuggets outlasted the Spurs 105-96. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nuggets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
