A pair of the NBA’s most prolific bench scorers will go head to head on Tuesday night when the Charlotte Hornets continue their road trip against the hometown Sacramento Kings.
Jeremy Lamb’s sixth season in the league continues to be his best as he’s currently averaging career-high marks in scoring (14.4 points), rebounding (4.7), assists (2.5) and steals (0.8) for the Hornets. The UConn product has also been showcasing his versatility through Charlotte’s first two games of their current road trip with marks of 11.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.0 block per outing.
The Hornets shooting guard will likely be matched up in the second unit with Buddy Hield, who has thrived since arriving in Sacramento last February as part of the DeMarcus Cousins trade.
