After Action Report
In Denver, the Nuggets edged the Hornets 109-101. Ugly basketball, but the Nuggets did just enough. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Nuggets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
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.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
