After Action Report

The Hornets outlasted the Suns 109-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
