March 9 - The Miami Heat must be thrilled that the Charlotte Hornets are coming in for Monday night's game.
Charlotte has lost nine of its past 10 games.
In addition, the Heat have beaten the Hornets six straight times.
The last time Charlotte defeated Miami was a 108-103 victory on Feb. 25, 2023.
Charlotte hasn't won a playoff series since 2002. And the last two times the Hornets made the postseason -- in 2014 and 2016 -- they were eliminated by the Heat in the first round both times.
At the moment, the Hornets are plagued by injuries.
