Hornets close regular season with win over Magic, 117-103

The Charlotte Hornets put a bow on a terrific 2015-16 regular season as they defeated the Orlando Magic Wednesday night, 117-103.

One of the best years in franchise history came to a close Wednesday night at Time Warner Cable Arena. The Charlotte Hornets defeated the Orlando Magic, 117-103, to close the 82-game 2015-2016 season. With the win and a bizarre night in the Eastern Conference, Charlotte will begin the 2016 NBA Playoffs as the sixth seed, facing the Miami Heat in the first round.

A hot-shooting first quarter opened up Charlotte's lead.
