Charlotte Hornets at Utah Jazz gamethread

After a nice start to their road trip, the Charlotte Hornets take on the Utah Jazz tonight with a chance to extend their winning streak to four. Last game was a double overtime thriller and we're definitely hoping for this one to be just as exciting.

The best part of this one? HIS NAME'S BATUM. IT RHYMES. WITH DOOM. AND YOU'RE GONNA BE HURTIN. REAL. SOOOOOOOOONNNNNNN. That's right! Nicolas Batum is back in action tonight which is great news for a Hornets team that has been dealing with all kinds of injuries this season.
