The Charlotte Hornets were not going to lose a fourth consecutive game on Friday night against the Brooklyn Nets. After an early six-point deficit, Charlotte would crank up the jets and score at will against the nets.
After the first quarter, the Hornets would go on to lead the nets for the rest of the game. When all was said and done, the Charlotte Hornets ended up winning this matchup with a score of 123-112.
This game was a must win for the Hornets because they had fallen out of the top-eight in the Eastern Conference standings after their loss to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night.
