After Action Report
The Kings snuck past the Hornets 103-98. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hornets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
