Nick Gallo (okcthunder.com) previews tonight’s game in Charlotte: “As the Thunder hits the road to commence an Eastern Conference back-to-back, with the first stop coming in Charlotte in a battle with the Hornets, that defensive cohesion will need to be a top priority. At point guard for Charlotte is Kemba Walker, who in the early going of the 2018-19 campaign is averaging an incredible 30.1 points per game, second most in the NBA. That’s not it for the Hornets backcourt, however, as youngsters Malik Monk and Jeremy Lamb are both shooting nearly 40 percent from the three-point stripe, while the second unit is graced with an NBA legend – Tony Parker.
Thursday Bolts: 11.1.18
