After Action Report
The Hornets outlasted the Kings 111-104. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
