Where: BMO Harris Bradley Center; Milwaukee, Wisconsin
When: 8:00 p.m. EST
The Hornets are on the road again, and come face-to-face with Giannis Antetokounmpo, arguably the hottest player in the NBA. If you haven’t been paying attention, here are Giannis’ game logs through three games:
10/18 @ Boston: 37 points, 13 rebounds, three assists, three steals
10/20 v Cleveland: 34 points, eight rebounds, eight assists, three steals
10/21 v Portland: 44 points, eight rebounds, four assists, two steals
Yikes.
This was already going to be a matchup problem, but to make matters worse the Hornets will be without both backup point guards — Michael Carter-Williams and Julyan Stone — along with Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (not ready to play, but back with the team) and Cody Zeller.
