After Action Report

The SuperSonics edged the Hornets 113-104. The SuperSonics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; the SuperSonics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
