After Action Report

The Hornets survived the Nuggets 110-108 in overtime. The Nuggets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Nuggets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
