CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, and Luke Kennard returned to the floor Monday night and helped lead the Los Angeles Clippers past the Charlotte Hornets, 119-117.
The Hornets were fortunate to only be trailing by nine at the end of the first half given the inconsistent effort on the defensive end. There were too many times where guys were bailing down the floor instead of attacking the glass and too many possessions where Clippers shooters were wide-open on the arc. Los Angeles shot 6-of-9 from deep in the second quarter.
Offensively, the Hornets had a lot of wasted possessions.
