After a thrilling victory Saturday at home against the Miami Heat, the Charlotte Hornets host the Washington Wizards Monday, in their third consecutive game at the Spectrum Center. Charlotte enters the contest 2-1, with their only defeat coming at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks. Washington is also 2-1, with victories against the Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks.
Unfortunately for the Hornets, they'll once again be without two of their starters, as Coby White and Kon Knueppel have been ruled out. The Wizards will be without recent No. 1 overall pick AJ Dybantsa, who has yet to make his NBA debut, currently dealing with an ankle injury.
