After Action Report
The Hornets stunned the Clippers 131-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
