The Charlotte Hornets had the honor of being part of the first-ever NBA game at the brand-new Little Caesars Arena in Midtown Detroit on Wednesday night. Unfortunately for the Pistons, Charlotte also played the role of spoiler as well with a come-from-behind 108-106 win to move its preseason record to 1-1 this year.
Things started out poorly for the Hornets as they fell behind by 18 points entering halftime, although quickly regrouped and entered the fourth quarter down just 81-80. Charlotte would eventually go on to take its first lead of the game at 100-98 with 4:11 left on the clock.
