After Action Report
The Hornets rolled past the Suns 127-89. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Suns couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Suns locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.

- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
