After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Mavericks 103-100. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
