After Action Report

The Hornets fended off the Wizards 94-85. Ugly basketball, but the Hornets did just enough. The Wizards answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Wizards' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Wizards utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
