After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Kings fended off the Hornets 117-108. Kings' offense had its way with the Hornets. The Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell; Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
