After Action Report

The Jazz buried the Hornets 117-96. Jazz's scorers couldn't be contained. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
