Three of the team&#8217;s starters scored in double figures in that contest. Brandon Miller finished with 21 points, six rebounds and three assists. Mark Williams added 15 points and nine boards on an efficient 6-for-7 effort from the field, while Miles Bridges contributed 14 points, nine rebounds, and four assists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hornets trailed by just five points after the opening stanza. However, the Bulls increased their advantage to 15 points at the break before coasting to a 14-point  victory. Charlotte shot 35.7 percent from the field and an abysmal 8-for-46 from beyond the arc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"nuggets-seek-to-continue-recent-success\">Sixers Hope To Bounce Back From Loss Against Pacers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the Sixers come into this conference tilt on the heels of a 121-107 loss to the Indiana Pacers on Friday night. Philadelphia produced a balanced scoring attack in which four starters reached double figures. Tyrese Maxey scored a team-high 22 points, including three 3-pointers. Paul George finished with 15 points and five rebounds, while Joel Embiid and Kelly Oubre Jr. contributed 12 points each. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game was tight early on before Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton knocked down four 3-pointers to help Indiana jump out to a 31-22 lead after the first 12 minutes of action. Thanks in part to Embiid sustaining a facial injury late in the opening frame, Indiana went on to post its second victory in seven games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cavaliers-vs-nuggets-prediction-cavaliers-win-a-close-one\">Hornets vs Sixers Prediction: Philadelphia Wins A Close One<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both teams have struggled this season due to injuries. Charlotte&#8217;s leading scorer, LaMelo Ball, has missed seven straight games. Philadelphia has had its trio of Embiid, George, and Maxey in the lineup together for more than 30 minutes just one time this season. The Hornets are 1-9 across their last 10 outings, while the Sixers have produced five wins in their previous 10 contests. That said, look for Philadelphia to notch its ninth consecutive win over the Hornets. <\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One of the games on tap from Monday night\u2019s\u00a0NBA\u00a0slate features the Charlotte Hornets taking on the Philadelphia 76ers.
