After Action Report

The Hornets fended off the Spurs 96-88. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Spurs couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
