In a game that many thought the Charlotte Hornets would lose, the team came out and silenced a lot of doubters. On Friday night, the Hornets won their 21st game of the season while on the road against the Toronto Raptors.
After trailing briefly in the first quarter, the Hornets went two straight quarters without ever trailing. Even with losing the lead a couple of times in the fourth, the Hornets were able to answer on each possession.
With the Hornets’ clutch play in Toronto, they finished with a 99-96 win. The Hornets have improved in every matchup against the Raptors so far, and it was great to see the progress of Charlotte’s young players.
