The second team to be targeted was the New Orleans Hornets.
The Hornets were a mediocre team, although they had a top-tier blue-collar center in P.J. Brown, the quality of other positions was simply too poor.
Yu Fei kept calling for 1-5 pick-and-rolls, targeting Brown, leading to three fouls drawn in a single quarter, four in a half, and before the third quarter ended, Brown had fouled out.
The only Hornet player who left a lasting impression on Yu Fei was the rookie J.R. Smith. Yu Fei had only seen Smith's brain-dead play in the 2018 finals, not expecting that as a youngster, he was a talented guy with endless possibilities.
He was the kind of player who brought a "WOW" moment to the audience in every game.
Against the Hornets, Yu Fei scored another 40 points, making it back-to-back games with 40-point performances.
Hornets' head coach Byron Scott said, "Imagine Larry Bird with Scottie Pippen's athletic ability, that's Frye."
Afterward, the Bucks headed to Washington.
