Heat Edge Hornets in Charlotte's home opener

The Charlotte Hornets fell in their home opener to the Miami Heat on Saturday night, 114-106. Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro combined for 48 points in the Heat win, while former Hornet Terry Rozier added 19 points.

Best of the Night: LaMelo Ball

His per-game average will drop after only putting up 27 points tonight, but I guess you can't go for 34 every time you touch the floor, right? In all seriousness, another solid night for the face of the Hornets' franchise although he cooled off from the perimeter, going 2-10 from downtown.
