Second-Half Offense, Low Turnovers Lead Hornets to Homestand-Opening Win
Charlotte snapped an eight-quarter streak of scoring under 30 points starting in the third on Friday night against Cleveland, racking up 60 total points on 49% shooting over the final two frames in a 108-102 home victory. Fueled by a trifecta of 25-point games from Miles Bridges, PJ Washington and Terry Rozier, the Hornets took advantage of an 18-9 scoring differential in second-chance points and committed a season-low five turnovers. Offense is still a work in progress right now, but regardless, the team found a way to pull out a much-needed win.
