It's a good time for the Charlotte Hornets and Chicago Bulls to meet because one of them will come away with a victory when they clash Thursday in Chicago.
Both teams had solid stretches in January, but they're still struggling.
Charlotte had two sets of two-game winning streaks in the latter half of January. The last of those ended with Tuesday's 124-115 road loss against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball set the franchise record for career triple-doubles by posting his eighth on the strength of 27 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.
