After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets survived the Trail Blazers 109-106. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
