Hornets vs Magic.

The Hornets traveled to Orlando to play the Magic. The Hornets were big favorites in this one, which is something the Magic definitely took into consideration. They looked like a confident young team that would take any shot they could and they gave the Hornets a run for their money. This was another one of those back and forth games where the Hornets saved their best for last. Led by forwards Jalen McDaniels and Miles Bridges the Hornets outscored the Magic 29 – 18 in the fourth quarter and ended up winning the game 120 – 111.

My player of the game was Miles Bridges who once again posted another 30 point game, finishing with 31 points (including 5 threes) and 6 rebounds. I know we’re only 5 games into the season but in my opinion, if Bridges keeps this up he will be the NBA’s most improved player and an All-Star.

The Hornets have started 4-1 and are second in the Eastern Conference. Hopefully, the whole world sees that we are one of the most fun teams to watch when we play on ESPN Friday night in Miami.
