After Action Report

The Hornets snuck past the Nuggets 114-111. Hornets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nuggets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
