For the first time in 1,159 days, the Charlotte Hornets have knocked off the Philadelphia 76ers. Charlotte came away from Monday’s early afternoon game with a 130-93 win over Philadelphia, snapping a winless drought against the 76ers that lasted over three years.
The 76ers were without two of their stars in Joel Embiid and Paul George, but it was still an uninspiring performance from the Eastern Conference’s No. 6 seed.
Charlotte’s starting five continues to thrive
The starting unit of LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, Kon Knueppel, Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabate continued to shine in Monday’s win. Charlotte improved to 9-1 in games when it runs out that starting five.
That same starting unit for the Hornets has also produced the highest NET rating of any starting five across the NBA this season. Entering Monday’s game, the starting unit of Charlotte has a +29.1-point differential, the best point differential of any five-man lineup in the NBA this season.
