After Action Report

The Mavericks survived the Hornets 111-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Mavericks cashed in. The Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss; Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Mavericks bench chemistry carried them.
