Hornets falter in final minute versus Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets

Not a soul on earth gave the Charlotte Hornets much of a chance tonight against the Denver Nuggets, but that didn't matter. Charles Lee's bunch looked motivated and determined to make a statement despite being without several key players.

Unfortunately, they weren't able to get it to the finish line, thanks to a very questionable foul call on Josh Green where he stripped Nikola Jokic in the backcourt. Jokic knocked down both free throws to take a one-point lead. Then, Miles Bridges was pushed while shooting a floater near the rim and no foul was called.
