After Action Report
In a track meet, the Hornets stunned the Kings 131-126. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Kings' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
