Losers of seven of eight and coming off two disappointing home losses, the Charlotte Hornets responded by defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder, 116-103, suggesting taht they may not done just yet.
Once again Charlotte was without Cody Zeller with a knee injury and Nicolas Batum with an elbow injury. The good news was the Hornets got Jeremy Lamb and Frank Kaminsky back from injury. Each played a factor in the win. Lamb had 14 points and was a team-best +22 in plus/minus, while Kaminsky finished with eight points, five rebounds and three assists.
