The final home outing of the season for the Charlotte Hornets will commence this afternoon as they’ll take on the Indiana Pacers for the first of two meetings in three days.
Although hampered by some recent Achilles soreness the last couple of weeks, Nicolas Batum has still had a solid two months for the Hornets. Since the end of January, Batum is putting up 11.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 1.1 steals across 26 games, which also includes a season-high 31 points and seven three-pointers against Indiana on Feb. 2.
Batum will be tasked with covering fourth-year veteran, Bojan Bogdanoviu0107, who has had a fantastic first season in Indiana after signing with the organization last summer.
