Cody Zeller notched 9 rebounds, 3 blocks, 3 steals, and 2 assists to go along with his career high 28 points, but it wasn’t enough as the Charlotte Hornets ultimately succumbed to the Golden State Warriors, 121-110.
In a change of plans, the Hornets tried not digging themselves into a massive hole early in the game. They alternated baskets with the Warriors for almost the entire first quarter. They never led by more than three or trailed by more than five. Kevin Durant made a tough 3-pointer in the final seconds of the frame to put the Warriors up 34-30.
