After Action Report
The Hornets rolled past the Nuggets 114-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. Hornets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
