Rozier, Washington Lead Hornets to Skid-Snapping Win Over Portland
A 44-point first quarter set the tone for the Hornets early on Sunday evening, leading to a 109-101 home win over the Trail Blazers to snap the team’s season-high four-game losing streak. Terry Rozier nearly triple-doubled with 34 points, eight rebounds and 10 assists and PJ Washington returned from a three-game absence to finish with 23 points, five three-pointers, eight rebounds and four blocks off the bench. In three appearances since sitting out last Tuesday, Rozier is averaging 27.7 points on 52% shooting (41% from three), 7.0 rebounds, 9.3 assists and 2.3 steals in what hopefully is a good sign of things to come.
