After Action Report

The Jazz outlasted the Hornets 122-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Jazz cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Jazz stayed locked in; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
