After Action Report
The Hornets demolished the Cavaliers 138-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Cavaliers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
