Game Time: 7:00 PM EST on Monday November 22, 2021
Charlotte Hornets 41, Washington Wizards 42 (Q2 05:40)
What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Nobody should be complaining about the free throw disparity. Hornets have been undisciplined, reaching in and then on the other end struggling to score inside – 7:58 PM

Mile Bridges makes a business decision against…
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. – 7:57 PM


Rim rockin’ w/ @Montrezl Harrell!

Not enough creations on the floor with this backup unit, needs Melo/Miles/Hayward, offense just too hard to come by – 7:49 PM

Deni Avdija puts the clamps on Gordon Hayward, then throws up the 🙅🏻♂️ pic.twitter.com/HiBustB4he – 7:47 PM

Deni Avdija with a strong defensive stand on Gordon Hayward so from the bench Kyle Kuzma and Thomas Bryant throw up the 🙅🏽♂️ – 7:44 PM

Heat’s Bam Adebayo on the outside noise to shoot threes: ‘Just let me grow as a player’ miamiherald.com/sports/nba/mia… Adebayo attempted his first three of the season in Saturday’s loss to the Wizards and it was a full-court heave – 7:42 PM

That ball movement!

LaMelo Ball likes his shot tonight vs. the Wizards. However, the shot does not like LaMelo so far. He was 1-for-8, 0-for-4 on 3s in the first quarter. Terry Rozier, who always likes his shot, is 4-for-5, 3-for-3 on 3s. – 7:38 PM

A 1-point game after the first!

Wes Unseld Jr. has said he and the coaches would like to see Deni Avdija be more decisive on offense, and Avdija was decisive during tonight’s first quarter, not hesitating before he decides to shoot or pass. He scored his three points on a 3-pointer. – 7:37 PM


That was one of the Wizards’ better ball-movement quarters of the season. They lead the Hornets 27-26 at the start of the second quarter. – 7:36 PM

Wizards lead the Hornets 27-26 at the end of the first quarter. Rozier leads all scorers with 11 pts. Wiz are 3-11 3PT, but have 16 PITP already. – 7:36 PM

After one, the Wizards lead Charlotte 27-26.
Beal, KCP: 5p
Kuzma: 4p 6r
Rozier: 11p – 7:36 PM




Washington star wide receiver Terry McLaurin is here. So is Terry Rozier. Two Scary Terrys in the house. Big applause for McLaurin. pic.twitter.com/gOXX35J7Ev – 7:30 PM


T-Ro is heating up! 👌🔥

One day the Hornets will have a center who can punish a mismatch. Plumlee has also been blown past by Kuzma twice, need more from him – 7:17 PM

Miles Bridges straight on Beal is an interesting starting wrinkle – 7:13 PM

Wizards shot a terrible ball in Charlotte, don’t expect that to happen again in Washington. Defense will need to take it up a level again – 7:10 PM

Had a lot of life stuff going on, all good things so no issue but happy to be back being able to watch the Hornets live – 7:06 PM

Kyle Kuzma is a genius. Paid $1,700 for $50,000+ worth of engagement. farfetch.com/shopping/men/r… – 6:59 PM

Rui Hachimura did limited work at Go-Go practice today, non-contact stuff. Next step for him is 1-on-1 work, per Wes Unseld Jr. He said it’s possible Hachimura goes on their road trip, but didn’t sound likely. – 5:22 PM

Ahead of tonight’s @Charlotte Hornets game at WAS, some notes on LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges and their performances at ATL:
Ball had 15 pts, 10 rebs, 11 ast for his 3rd career triple-double to become the 2nd youngest player to reach 3 triple-doubles only behind Luka Doncic #AllFly – 5:21 PM

Davis Bertans will travel with the Wizards on their upcoming 4-game road trip. As for Hachimura, “we’ll see,” Unseld said. – 5:21 PM

Davis Bertans is OUT tonight after being listed as questionable. He went through scrimmages at Go-Go practice today and will travel with the Wizards on their road trip. – 5:20 PM

Davis Bertans will not play tonight against the Hornets, Wes Unseld Jr. said. Bertans participated in contact work with the Capital City Go-Go today. – 5:20 PM

Davis Bertans (ankle) is OUT for the game against Charlotte tonight. – 5:19 PM

Earlier today, the Wizards assigned Rui Hachimura and Davis Bertans to the Capital City Go-Go so they could participate in practice. Hachimura did not do any of the live portion of practice, Wes Unseld Jr. said, but Bertans was active. – 5:19 PM
