After Action Report
The Hornets took care of the Mavericks 122-111. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell.
What tipped it

- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
