Kelly Oubre Jr. channels Bruce Lee after historic night for Hornets

The Charlotte Hornets finally snapped their five-game losing streak after beating the Memphis Grizzlies, 118-108, thanks in large part to a historic night from Kelly Oubre Jr.

The Hornets were 0-4 on their West Coast road trip heading to Memphis. The main reason for a bulk of those losses was their inability to close teams out in the fourth quarter. They were able to fix that against Memphis, and a ton credit should go to Kelly Oubre Jr.

Oubre put up 37 points off the bench and did it with pure efficiency, including a nearly perfect 7-of-9 from 3-point range.
