After Action Report
The Cavaliers pulled away from the Hornets 116-101. Cavaliers torched the Hornets on the offensive end. Cavaliers' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Hornets came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
