This game was a matter of survival and the Charlotte Hornets just barely did at home.
Trailing by as many as 13 points in the first half, the Hornets held off a depleted Memphis Grizzlies team 100-92 at Spectrum Center Friday.
Hornets forward Marvin Williams hit a 3-pointer with just under 3 minutes left to tie the game at 90-90, then grabbed a rebound off a miss by the Grizzlies’ JaMychal Green. Williams followed that with another 3-pointer, off an assist from Kemba Walker (23 points), for the lead.
