After Action Report

The Hornets took care of the Lakers 115-98. Hornets' offense had its way with the Lakers. The Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep; shots just aren't falling for the Lakers lately. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
