After Action Report

The 76ers held off the Hornets 118-109. 76ers' offense had its way with the Hornets. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the 76ers came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping.

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.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
