Hornets
12W-31L


Get ready for a clash that’s all about redemption and rankings as the Brooklyn Nets swoop into the Spectrum Center to buzz the Charlotte Hornets tonight at 8 PM EST! Both teams are itching to shake off recent losses and climb up from the depths of the Eastern conference standings, where the Nets are lagging 18 games behind and the Hornets are not far ahead, just 10 games back. With the playoff air getting thicker and the betting lines drawing a tight rope at an over/under of 204.5, tonight’s game promises to be anything but a snooze fest. As the Hornets look to sting back into form after their recent slip against the Lakers, and the Nets aim to weave a winning web following their tumble against the Kings, be sure to catch every pass, dunk, and dribble. Tonight, it’s not just about basketball; it’s about survival of the fittest, or should we say, survival of the Nettest and Hornettest!
