After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Hornets squeaked past the 76ers 89-87. The 76ers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Hornets. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
