Charlotte Hornets: 3 standouts from preseason opening loss to Walker, Celtics

After a long, heartbreaking off-season, the Charlotte Hornets are finally back in action. Ironically, their first game back came against an old friend in Kemba Walker, who left the team after eight years and joined the Boston Celtics earlier this summer.

It was weird seeing him in green. It’s certainly going to take some getting used to for Charlotte Hornets fans.

After a shaky start to this game, the Hornets settled down and were up by 17 at one point, but fell apart in the second half after limiting their starters. It’s preseason, so it’s not a huge deal.
