After Action Report
The Hornets pulled away from the Kings 108-98. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
