After Action Report
In a track meet, the 76ers squeaked past the Hornets 119-115. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
