After Action Report

The Grizzlies survived the Hornets 99-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Grizzlies couldn't shake the cold spell; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Grizzlies · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
