After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Jazz 102-98. The Jazz couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
