Turnovers crushed the Hornets in low-scoring loss to Orlando Magic

Eastern Conference Standings: 11th seed with a 6-11 record

Summary

The Charlotte Hornets just couldn't overcome themselves versus the Orlando Magic in their 95-84 loss.

It looked positive for the Hornets during the first half as they held a 25-18 lead after the first quarter, but the Magic's defense became too much to handle for Charlotte. The Magic struggled significantly on the offensive end, which made this a potential winnable game for the Hornets.

However, the second-half was not too kind to the Hornets offensively as they continued to turn the ball over, amassing 26 giveaways that resulted in 33 Orlando points.
