A busy week awaits the Knickerbockers. Five games are on the slate, including a four-game road trip along the coast and another NBA Cupper.
Knicks vs Hornets, Sunday, November 12, 12 pm EST, MSG TV
The Charlotte Hornets certainly have a capable offense. Terry Rozier and LaMelo Ball are the team leaders for points, with P.J. Washington and Gordon Hayward close behind. Charlotte is a fast-paced team—third in the NBA for speed—and rank ninth in the league for points per game. Offense, not a problem.
Their defense is different. Charlotte rates 27th in the league in that regard.
