After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Jazz 107-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Hornets stayed locked in. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
