The Charlotte Hornets failed to solve the Boston Celtics again. A day after suffering a 124-109 home loss at the hands of the reigning NBA champions, LaMelo Ball and company got taken down anew by Boston in the same location Saturday evening to the tune of a 113-103 score. Ball had another big performance wasted in the loss, as he came away with 36 points on 15-for-26 shooting from the field with four rebounds, six assists, and three steals in 37 minutes.
However, Ball was not able to help his team for the most part of the fourth quarter as he was disqualified from the game after he committed his sixth foul with over seven minutes remaining in regulation.
