After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hornets fended off the Jazz 125-118. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Jazz · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
