After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Heat 111-107. Hornets torched the Heat on the offensive end. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
