Three reasons the Hornets' historic start is sustainable

It took less than a week of the 2021-22 season for the Charlotte Hornets to rewrite the franchise's record books.

With an impressive 16-point road win over the Brooklyn Nets, the Charlotte franchise advanced to 3-0 for the first time in a history that spans back to the 1988-89 NBA season.

With the 111-95 win at BKN, @hornets start the season 3-0 for the first time in franchise history. This marks their first win against the Nets in Brooklyn since 12/11/19 #AllFly
