After Action Report
The Jazz demolished the Hornets 114-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Jazz answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Jazz's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Jazz bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Jazz per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
