Rise and shine, it's time for some Charlotte Hornets basketball. Tipping off at 12 p.m. EST, the Hornets and New York Knicks will battle in NBA Cup play at Spectrum Center. Charlotte is looking for their first win in group play while the Knicks are looking to remain unbeaten.
Here is how our staff sees today's game playing out.
Zachary Roberts: Knicks 107, Hornets 86
The Hornets have unfathomably gotten less healthy. This time, it’s LaMelo Ball missing some time. Without his almost nightly 30 points, the Hornets will struggle to score at all.
