After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Wizards 103-101. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Wizards locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Wizards · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
