The Charlotte Hornets got back in the win column against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night, and they did it in style, 119-98. The Hornets held the lead for the majority of the game and got it up to as high as 24 points. They controlled the tempo and shut down any hopes the Cavaliers might’ve had for a comeback.
The Hornets did all of that while LaMelo Ball only played eight minutes because of foul trouble. This opened up the door for former All-Star Isaiah Thomas, who just signed a 10-day deal with the squad.
