After Action Report
The Hornets rolled past the Bulls 137-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hornets cashed in. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.

- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
