After Action Report

In a track meet, the Hornets buried the Jazz 137-105. Hornets torched the Jazz on the offensive end. The Hornets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. The Jazz rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
