After Action Report
The Hornets outlasted the Hawks 108-95. Hornets torched the Hawks on the offensive end. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hawks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
