After Action Report
The Jazz squeaked past the Nuggets 105-102. Every possession went the Jazz way. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
