After Action Report
The Lakers outlasted the Nuggets 99-87. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Nuggets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
