After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Kings survived the Hornets 126-122 in overtime. The Hornets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings are in a full-on tailspin; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
