After Action Report
The Hornets ran roughshod over the Clippers 118-94. Lineup balance gave the Hornets a clear synergy edge. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Clippers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Clippers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
