The Hornets need this game over the Wizards to keep any hopes they have at the three seed alive. They're currently one game behind the Atlanta Hawks in the loss column, and their lack of tiebreakers over the teams ahead of them complicates things. However, the Miami Heat lost their most recent game to the Orlando Magic. If the Heat lose their rematch, and the Hornets win out their division games then that will tie them with Miami in the division record category.
