After Action Report
The Hornets handled the Nuggets 110-96. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Fresh off a statement win, the Hornets stayed locked in; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

- Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
