After Action Report

The Hornets snuck past the Heat 101-97. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
