After Action Report

The Bucks took care of the Hornets 129-119. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bucks cashed in. The Bucks bent the defense out of shape from deep; shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. The Bucks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Bucks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
