We highlight and take a close look at the top-10 games for the Charlotte Hornets during the 2018-19 season.

The Charlotte Hornets recently released their full 82 game schedule for the 2018-19 season along with every other team in the NBA. Their schedule is filled with four nationally televised games, 15 back to backs, and 20 of their first 36 games are at home. They will close the year with 11 of their final 17 games on the road.

The Hornets’ strength of schedule ranks 21st in the league. They are tied for the most back to backs while also being tied for the fewest nationally televised games this season. Their West Coast road trip will be from January 5th to January 14th where they will play six games on the other side of the country.

Charlotte doesn’t have a Christmas Day Game this year. They are one of only two franchises (Memphis Grizzlies) to never have a Christmas Day Game. Maybe their fortunes will change in the near future.

Because they are not considered one of the top teams in the NBA, the Hornets weren’t given a lot of national TV games or holiday games that teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors were given.

We will take a detailed look at the 10 must watch and can’t miss games of the year. So, without further ado, here are their top-10 games throughout the 2018-19 season:
