After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Mavericks 109-108. The Mavericks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hornets. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
