After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Suns 104-99. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
