After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets rolled past the Hawks 124-99. The breakneck pace played right into Hornets' hands. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
