After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Spurs 98-93. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
