The New York Knicks (2-1) will conclude a three-game home stand on Wednesday night when they clash with the Charlotte Hornets (2-1).
The Knicks are vibing after dispatching the Detroit Pistons and the Orlando Magic. Granted, those are teams that New York is supposed to beat. The Hornets fall into that category, too.
Veteran forward Gordon Hayward leads a Charlotte squad that’s been reduced by injuries and legal woes. Among the players on their injury report are LaMelo Ball (out-ankle) and Terry Rozier (doubtful-ankle).
