After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Mavericks 121-119. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep; Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
