After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers handled the Hornets 120-101. Lakers torched the Hornets on the offensive end. The Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
