After Action Report
The Mavericks fended off the Hornets 105-97. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Mavericks stayed locked in. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- 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.
