It's tough to imagine confidence being higher for the Charlotte Hornets.
They've won four games in a row, with two of those against the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks and then Wednesday night's conquering of the Philadelphia 76ers on the road.
"As I told the group, they're choosing this right now," Hornets coach James Borrego said. "This is a choice. They're choosing to play with this effort, to have this mentality, play with this aggression and have this preparation before the game. They deserve credit. They're locked in right now."
Ending Philadelphia's seven-game winning streak pushes Charlotte into Friday night's game against the visiting Orlando Magic at Charlotte, N.
