After Action Report
The Hornets outlasted the Jazz 109-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
