After Action Report

The Hornets pulled away from the Kings 121-104. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Hornets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
