After Action Report

The Raptors downed the Hornets 111-94. Every possession went the Raptors way. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Raptors; the Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Raptors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 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.
  • Raptors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
