What went right for the Charlotte Hornets?

Mason Plumlee’s big night

Mason Plumlee continued his strong play with 18 points on 6/7 shooting, adding 14 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks. Plumlee also knocked down 6 of his 11 free throw attempts. Tonight’s game also marked Plumlee’s 100th career double double.

Terry Rozier was “Scary Terry”

Terry Rozier put up 27 points on 11/20 shooting, including 3/6 from three-point range. Rozier’s 55.0% shooting in tonight’s game is his best mark in any of the 10 games this season in which he has scored at least 24 points. Rozier’s three three-pointers gave him 682 in his Charlotte career and moved him past Marvin Williams (681) and into third place on the Hornets’ all-time list. Kemba Walker (1,283) and Dell Curry (929) sit at first and second, respectively.
