After Action Report
The Hornets outlasted the Suns 124-105. Hornets' scorers couldn't be contained. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Whispers of a Suns locker-room rift aren't helping. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
