After Action Report

The Hornets ran roughshod over the Wizards 121-93. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
