After Action Report
The Hornets blew the doors off the Mavericks 120-97. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Hornets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
