After Action Report
The Mavericks outlasted the Hornets 98-91. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Mavericks. Mavericks' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Hornets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
