CHARLOTTE — Rookie Brandon Miller made a career-high seven 3-pointers and finished with 31 points, and the Charlotte Hornets beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 118-111 on Wednesday night to avenge a 23-point loss earlier in the week.
Miles Bridges and Tre Mann each added 17 points and Grant Williams had 16 off the bench for Charlotte (18-54), which shot 58% from the field to snap a five-game losing streak. Vasa Micic had 11 points and 12 assists, and Nick Richards added 11 points and 10 rebounds.
But it was Miller who provided the boost — and the knockout blow with a 3 with 25 seconds left — for the Hornets.
