21-39. CHARLOTTE HORNETS. B+. The Charlotte Hornets don’t have the luxury of having a lot of firepower at their disposal, but on Sunday they showcased an impressive grit that speaks to what their young players could become down the line. James Borrego and his players threw everything at Giannis, often crowding him out with multiple defenders, but the reigning MVP came up with an answer almost every time. There’s not a lot that the Hornets could do about Giannis delivering a 40-20-6 game, but they should take some real pride in limiting Milwaukee’s offense, and being the team to bring their 83-game streak of scoring 100 or more to an end..
