After Action Report
The Hornets pulled away from the Mavericks 107-94. Hornets torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Mavericks; the Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
