After Action Report
The Clippers snuck past the Hornets 97-96. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
