After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets survived the Timberwolves 112-107. The breakneck pace played right into Hornets' hands. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
