LaMelo Ball, Hornets continue playoff push vs. Bulls
The Charlotte Hornets tip off their stretch run with a five-game homestand that starts Thursday night against the sputtering Chicago Bulls.
Charlotte (32-33) can solidify its place in the Eastern Conference play-in tournament, and perhaps improve its overall playoff positioning with a strong finish at home. The Hornets -- currently No. 8 in the East -- are 17-14 at home against 15-19 on the road.
Their final two games of the regular season after the upcoming, season-long homestand are both on the road.
