Friday at 7 p.m., at Wells Fargo Center
Talking points
On paper, this looks like an easy one for a Sixers squad coming off Thursday night’s huge road victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers. But don’t let the Hornets’ losing record fool you. Before Wednesday’s lopsided loss to the Boston Celtics, Charlotte had won five straight games. The Hornets also boast an all-star in point guard Kemba Walker and have an athletic team. The Sixers can’t afford to take them lightly in their quest to win their 13th straight game at the Wells Fargo Center.
