Having long established themselves as sparks off the bench, LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges took different roles on Wednesday. With Terry Rozier and P.J. Washington both out against the Sixers due to injuries, Ball and Bridges took their spots in the starting lineup.
The two hardly missed a beat in their new positions, even if the Hornets came away with a defeat. Underscored by their latest highlight-reel connection, Ball and Bridges excelled together once again on Wednesday, another milestone after impressing in the preseason and as reserves together.
