After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Grizzlies took care of the Hornets 133-120. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. The Grizzlies came in with something to prove after a loss; Grizzlies' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Grizzlies per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hornets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Grizzlies · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
