After Action Report

The Clippers survived the Nuggets 95-90. The Nuggets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Clippers. Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Clippers stayed locked in. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
