After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Celtics 111-107. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Hornets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
