After Action Report
In Utah, the Jazz demolished the Hornets 117-91. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Jazz locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Jazz · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
