After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Kings 98-93. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
