After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Pacers rolled past the Hornets 113-89. Pacers torched the Hornets on the offensive end. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Pacers stayed locked in. The Pacers bench chemistry carried them. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
