After Action Report
The Hornets buried the Clippers 122-84. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Clippers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
