Hornets starting out 8=25 from the floor with seconds to go in the first, lucky to be trailing trailing 24-22

Charlotte Hornets PR @HornetsPR · 53m INJURY REPORT: @hornets vs LAC 1/30 Kelly Oubre (L Ankle Sprain) questionable Jalen McDaniels (L Ankle Sprain) out Gordon Hayward (H&S Protocols) out

Bouye has some trade value. I didn't really see much promise in Henderson, but maybe he'll start to put it together next year. I'd love to see Gilmore stick around on a decent deal, but can't imagine anyone wanting to stay with this team. We have a star in Jaycee, and good depth with Taylor, Stantly, and Hartsfield. I like AJ but I'd take a 5th for him in a minute.

At The Hive @At_The_Hive · 8m Hornets win! Made it scary, but they got it done. Bridges: 26pts, 8rebs, 6asts Ish: 22pts, 5asts Ball/Rozier: 20pts apiece Plumlee: 8pts, 17rebs, 6asts

At The Hive @At_The_Hive · 37m Plumlee is having probably his best game as a Hornet. 8 points, 16 rebounds, 6 assists.

thank goodness for Ish. We wouldn't have won this game without him.

Westbrook taking over the game with his drives and we have no answer. Learning lesson. He's an incredible talent, but if we can't find someone to stop him, we have to find a way to stop him as a team. game tied.

oh man, thanks for that. just switched. I talk about Eric all the time but the ESPN color guy is not Dell. Long live Eric and Dell. Hornets lead 73-53 at the switch to Bally.

after the first, Hornets can't hit from 3 but aren't trying much. Getting success driving into the paint and lead 31-21. Carmelo seems the only Laker who is trying. Hornets are learning though, winning by getting inside.

Lakers looking like crap and don't seem to care. Hornets lead 18-5 in the first.

oh my, Hornets making highlights, up 9-0. Melo and Terry playing like prime time.

Hornets have 20 home games left in the season, the most in the league.

gonna miss hearing Eric tonight

Charlotte Hornets PR @HornetsPR · 43s . @hornets reserve Kelly Oubre (L Ankle Sprain) has been downgraded to out

wow.

big game, national audience, and we are favored at home. Hope we can contain Anthony Davis. Lebron is a maybe, listed day to day. Gordon and Jalen are out, Kelly is day to day.

he got hops

Kelly gets 39 off the bench

158 points scored. I think the Hornets just scored more points than any other team this season..

blow out. Hornets just set a new record with 143 points, still 5 mins to go. Kelly is going wild again in the 4th.

and Bouknight back in tonight, first quarter minutes. When we're fully healthy we may not see him as much, but he's getting valuable time. Finally.

Charlotte Hornets PR @HornetsPR · 34m INJURY UPDATE: @hornets forward Gordon Hayward has been placed in the NBA's Health & Safety Protocols and will be downgraded to OUT for tonight's game at IND The Crown Club @CrownClubCLT · 21h Hornets win 56% of games when Gordon is in and 30% when he’s out.

visiting the Pacers tonight at 7. Hopefully we'll find someone who can hit from outside. Gordon is questionable.

Bugs come back, Terry with a great steal on an inbounds pass. Melo finally hits a 3, first in the last 2 games. We're looking better but we've got to guard the shooters better. We're trying to play inside against bigger guys and doing a better job of boxing out and getting arms in passing lanes, but we're leaving shooters open on a hot night for the Raptors. But we're back in the game
