After Action Report
The Hornets squeaked past the Mavericks 105-102. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Hornets. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
