After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Mavericks outlasted the Hornets 122-108. The Mavericks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
