The Hornets face the Minnesota Timberwolves in a rematch tonight. The Charlotte Hornets won the last match up and are currently riding a three game win streak. The new faces on the team are starting to jell together as players are getting more comfortable with each other. The Timberwolves are 4-2 with their only losses coming to the Hornets and the Thunder.
Charlotte will be without Nicolas Batum (rest), Spencer Hawes (rest), Brian Roberts (hamstring), and Marvin Williams (finger) as they are not traveling with the team. On only one days rest, expect starter and key role players to play in a limited fashion.
