The Hornets are closing out their longest away stretch until January as they square off against the Bulls for the first of two consecutive meetings starting tonight at 8 p.m. ET in Chicago.
After impressive starts in Orlando and Miami, the Hornets hit a bit of a wall against the undefeated Raptors on Monday night. Head Coach James Borrego said afterwards his squad “didn’t match [Toronto’s] physicality or energy,” in the 127-106 loss, particularly on the defensive end.
Hornets center Cody Zeller is 8-of-15 from the field for 19 total points in Charlotte’s two wins this season, but just 2-of-3 for seven points in the two losses.
