After Action Report

The Hornets held off the Celtics 102-94. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately; Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
