Stat of the Week: which lineups worked on opening night?

This edition will focus less on why certain things happened and simply present the data available. Opening night is a difficult night to gauge for multiple reasons, and while the Denver Nuggets lost a game they should have won against the Utah Jazz, it’s hard to fault most parties for the first regular season game action in six months.

Still, I want to break down and sort five-man lineup combinations. Which lineups were successful? Which ones weren’t? Is there a connection?

Every five-man lineup from last night, sorted by minutes played:
