After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hornets rolled past the Kings 131-110. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
