In a game that did not feature any of the Bucks’ typical starters, the Charlotte Hornets walked away with a 127-119 victory.
It was another odd night of basketball, with the Bucks’ entire starting five out of this one. Charlotte would utilize a 9-0 run to get out to an early lead (and a lead they’d hold the rest of the quarter). Going into the second period, the visitors held a 32-27 lead.
The Hornets would add onto that lead in the second quarter, thanks in large part to some scoring spurts. While the Bucks were able to trim it to single digits numerous times, the Hornets groomed a 66-55 advantage at intermission.
