After Action Report

The Hornets snuck past the Grizzlies 107-105. The tempo dragged the Grizzlies into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
