After Action Report

The Rockets blew the doors off the Hornets 132-112. Rockets' offense had its way with the Hornets. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
