The Charlotte Hornets are vying for their first road win of the season and will see if third time’s the charm as they take on a struggling Sacramento Kings team beginning tonight at 10 PM EST at the Golden 1 Center.
Despite dropping Monday night’s meeting with the L.A. Clippers, Hornets Head Coach James Borrego was pleased with his team’s overall showing. Charlotte has already played three top-10 offensive teams, though this evening’s opponent ranks 29th in this category (94.3 rating). Still though, the youthful Hornets can’t afford to endure any bad stretches, particularly on the road.
“Young guys tend to relax at one point of the game and to win in this league, you have to sustain it,” said Borrego after Monday’s game.
