After Action Report
The Hornets demolished the Mavericks 126-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
