After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets stunned the Clippers 120-117. The breakneck pace played right into Hornets' hands. Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Clippers. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
