After Action Report
The Nuggets handled the Suns 96-83. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. Shots just aren't falling for the Suns lately; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. 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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
