After Action Report
The Hornets snuck past the Knicks 107-106. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Shots just aren't falling for the Hornets lately; the Hornets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
