After Action Report
The Hornets handled the Hawks 109-99. The tempo dragged the Hawks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.
