Winning plays don’t always make the highlight reels, or even show up in the final box score at all. Often times, they happen so quickly that it’s hard to recognize their importance until after the game is over. At some point this season, every rotational player on the Hornets has made at least one of these pivotal, unsung, heads-up winning plays. Here’s the best from each one, with a notable catch: none of them are made shots (although some certainly led to them).
