After Action Report

The Hornets buried the Pistons 118-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pistons came in with something to prove after a loss. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pistons · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
