After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Trail Blazers blew the doors off the Hornets 123-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Trail Blazers cashed in. Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
