After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets edged the Kings 90-83. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. The Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
