After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets squeaked past the Kings 104-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. Style points be damned.
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.
- Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
