After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Bucks survived the Hornets 105-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. Bucks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Bucks. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- Bucks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bucks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
