When the Charlotte Hornets take the floor at Spectrum Center for their first game of the calendar year, they could have their starting lineup fully intact.
Miles Bridges and PJ Washington have each cleared the league’s health and safety protocols Saturday and are listed as questionable for Sunday’s matchup with Phoenix. Washington and Bridges, who’s tied with LaMelo Ball for the team lead in scoring at 19.7 points per game, missed the Hornets’ past two outings after landing on the COVID report a week ago. It’s the second time Bridges has been forced to miss action because of COVID protocols.
