After Action Report
The Hornets squeaked past the Rockets 131-128 in overtime. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
