After Action Report

The Hornets outlasted the Timberwolves 122-109. Hornets' offense had its way with the Timberwolves. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Timberwolves couldn't shake the cold spell. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
