Unseld quotes: Said they have enough depth to withstand when key guys are out (like Beal), said Deni’s strong fourth quarter on Monday is a sign that his work is paying off, said Deni is a reliable defender for them right now.
Borrego quotes: Said they did a great job on Steph in Sunday’s win (Rozier and Cody Martin), said Rozier deserves a ton of credit for their win.
Stats and Notes:
*These teams have a different approach with pace as the Hornets are just off the lead at 13.8 seconds per possession while the Wizards are way down there at 15.0 seconds. The Wizards are also excellent at limiting transition and 3-pointers, so this isn’t the greatest spot for the Hornets’ offense. The Hornets’ defense has also been bad at protecting the rim while they’re also allowing teams to get 40.2% of their shots from deep (24th). The Hornets’ starters are the worst rebounding unit in the league among lineups with 60 minutes at a brutal 44.5 TRB%.
