After Action Report

The Hornets blew the doors off the Wizards 125-96. The Wizards had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
