Before heading out on a five-game road swing, the Golden State Warriors will host the Charlotte Hornets at San Francisco's Chase Center on Tuesday night. Heading into Tuesday's contest, the Warriors are riding their first three-game win streak of the season. Following back-to-back dominant wins over the Sacramento Kings and Dallas Mavericks, the Warriors have now won five of their last six games since acquiring Jimmy Butler at the trade deadline.
While the Warriors are surging, the Hornets have lost six of their last seven games, including a 42-point loss to the Kings on Monday night at Golden 1 Center.
