Match Details:
Portland Trail Blazers vs Charlotte Hornets
Venue: Moda Center
Date: 27th December 2022
Time: 08:30 am IST
Preview:
The Portland Trail Blazers play host to the Charlotte Hornets at Moda Center on Monday. The Hornets (9-25=4) had some high hopes coming into the season, but everything has collapsed. Injuries have really held this club back, losing LaMelo Ball, Terry Rozier and Gordon Hayward for extended times this year. That looks even worse since Miles Bridges is also on hiatus, and it has fans wondering where this franchise is headed. With all that said, Ball, Hayward and Rozier all played in Friday night’s win over the Lakers, and that’s one of the first times those three have played together this season. With that said, they still enter this matchup losing nine of their last 11 games. That has Charlotte sitting with the second-worst record in the NBA, and it has fans wondering what the next step for this organization is. The Trail Blazers (17-16) come into this matchup losing four of their last five games. That’s undone all of their good work early in the year, especially since two of those defeats came against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The thing that’s holding this club back is its bench. Damian Lillard, Anfernee Simons, Josh Hart, Jerami Grant and Jusuf Nurkic form one of the most dangerous starting units in the NBA, but there’s simply nobody coming off of this bench. Addressing that before the trade deadline is the most important thing for this organization because they can’t compete with the elite unless their second unit comes in and holds things together. These teams played on November 9, with Portland prevailing, 105-95. That gives Portland nine wins in their last 11 meetings with the Hornets, dating back to 2017.
