However, Charlotte limps into this weekend.
The Hornets have dropped 3 straight games and will encounter a tough Celtics team on Friday before heading into Atlanta on Saturday.
The Hornets have been one of those teams who are deep and have a lot of playmakers. While they’re paced by Kemba Walker and his 22.6 points per game, Nicolas Batum and Cody Zeller continue to be productive.

Batum leads the Hornets in rebounds at 7.6 and in assists at 5.5.
Zeller is shooting 61% from the floor and has become a real force on the defensive end. His ability to work the paint and control it on both ends really has added such a huge part to his game.
Atlanta Hawks
The Atlanta Hawks have been a struggle as of late.
Sitting right behind the Hornets in the division, they’ve dropped 8 of their last 10 and will head into Toronto before coming home for this one against Charlotte.
Inconsistencies on both ends of the floor have plagued them, but this team has too many weapons to be struggling offensively.
