LaMelo Ball Returns as Hornets Face Cavaliers

The Charlotte Hornets have struggled significantly, extending their losing streak to 10 games after falling to the Cleveland Cavaliers 115-105. Despite the return of LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller, the Hornets were unable to keep pace offensively, with Ball scoring 24 points but shooting only 35% from the field. This marked a challenging evaluation for head coach Charles Lee, as he finally had his starting five healthy, though they still faced a tough matchup against the league's best team. Ball is having a standout season, averaging over 30 points per game, and both he and Miller are expected to play crucial roles as the Hornets prepare to face the Phoenix Suns. The team hopes to leverage the return of their star players to end their losing streak in the upcoming game. Overall, the Hornets will need to focus on minimizing turnovers, which have plagued their performance this season.
