After Action Report
The Lakers handled the Hornets 106-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in; the Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
