LeBron James has beat the Charlotte Hornets in 25 of their last 26 meetings and just had his highest regular season scoring game in two years as he scored 44 points in what was truly a vintage performance for the Cavs as they donned their orange Hardwood Classis uniforms for the second night in a row.
In the 2013-2014 season, his 61-point performance against the then-Charlotte Bobcats set his career-high in points and a franchise record for the Miami Heat. In dropping those 61 points, James scored 25 points in the third quarter and another 12 in the fourth.
