Milwaukee Bucks vs. Charlotte Hornets – October 26
Of course, a home matchup with the Charlotte Hornets in mid-October doesn’t sound like the most glamorous of prospects, but this is where it all begins.
For the second season in a row, the Bucks will start their season at home. The visiting Hornets’ summer didn’t involve a host of incoming stars but they did keep their core contributors in place.
On this trip to Milwaukee, Kemba Walker will be joined by the returning free agents Nicolas Batum and Marvin Williams. This game could also see the Hornets’ debut of Roy Hibbert, and of course, will be the latest homecoming for popular former Wisconsin Badger Frank Kaminsky.
This opener should provide the Bucks with a nice chance to get on the board with a W, something they failed to do in embarrassing fashion against the Knicks in last year’s equivalent fixture.
