After Action Report
The Lakers edged the Nuggets 107-101. The Lakers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Lakers. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
