After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Hornets took care of the Nuggets 115-96. Hornets' offense had its way with the Nuggets. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nuggets are in a full-on tailspin. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
