After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Pacers 88-85. The Pacers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
