After Action Report
The Cavaliers snuck past the Hornets 97-93. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Cavaliers. The Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Cavaliers bench chemistry carried them. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
