Hey, you up?
Tonight, the Charlotte Hornets take on the Portland Trail Blazers in the second game of a back-to-back. Deep down, I hope the Hornets lost last night so they can double down on winning tonight's game against the Blazers. Probably not the case, but one can hope.
As usual, you can watch tonight's game live on Fox Sports Southeast or League Pass and listen live with WFNZ 610 AM or WFNZ 102.5 FM.
Here are this evening's projected starters:
Hornets | Position | Trail Blazers |
Kemba Walker | PG | Damian Lillard |
Nicolas Batum | SG | C.J. McCollum |
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist | SF | Pat Connaughton |
Marvin Williams | PF | Al-Farouq Aminu |
Dwight Howard | C | Jusuf Nurkic |
The Hornets, sans Cody Zeller, are totally healthy. The Blazers, however, are without Wade Baldwin, C.J. Wilcox, and Meyers Leonard. None of those guys are really rotation players so the effect of their respective absenses on the outcome of tonight's should be negligible.
Tipoff is at 7:00 p.m. EST.
