Charlotte was already staring at a much-needed three-day break following last Saturday’s narrow road loss to Toronto before Wednesday’s home outing against Washington was postponed. And with the extended time off, the team got in four solid days of practice and will likely have center Cody Zeller back from a fractured left hand he suffered on Opening Night. The Hornets have gone 3-5 in games following three-or-more days of rest since the start of last season, while Chicago (which last played Monday night) is 1-6 across the same time frame. Which team looks more rested versus who looks rustier will be an interesting element heading into tonight’s showdown.
