The Charlotte Hornets are riding a season-long-tying three-game winning streak and will look to make it four in a row when they face the Brooklyn Nets beginning tonight at 7 PM EST at Spectrum Center.
Charlotte opened its post-All-Star Break schedule with a 103-93 road triumph over the Chicago Bulls on Thursday night, getting a combined 47 points from Malik Monk (25) and Miles Bridges (22) in the process. The Bulls whittled a 21-point third-quarter deficit down to just two with about 14 minutes remaining, but the Hornets stayed composed and pulled away in the end.
“I’d say it was mature, resilient,” said Coach Borrego after Friday’s practice back in Charlotte.
