After Action Report
The Hornets held off the Kings 111-102. Every possession went the Hornets way. The Hornets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- 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.
