Mason Plumlee (!!!) led seven Hornets in double figures with 18 points and 11 rebounds as the Charlotte Hornets snapped an eight game losing streak with a win over the Orlando Magic, 112-105.
LaMelo Ball and PJ Washington helped the Hornets jump out to a lightning fast 7-0 lead and set the tone for the game. That lead grew to as large as 12 by the midway point of the first quarter. Theo Maledon was a surprise star in the early going with a three and a handful of assists. After one, the Hornets led by eight.
