After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers snuck past the Hornets 95-94. The Lakers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Lakers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
