After stealing a lead built on a 17 point comeback in the second half, the Golden State Warriors went cold in the fourth quarter to drop a deflating loss to the Orlando Magic on Friday night.
Yet, with the second leg of a back-to-back slated for Saturday, the Warriors won’t have much time to sulk from Friday’s defeat in Orlando.
For part two of their four-game road swing, the Warriors will travel to Charlotte for a tilt against the Hornets and a homecoming for Steph Curry. The seven-time All-Star grew up in Charlotte with his father, Dell spending the bulk of his NBA career with the Hornets.
Along with a trip back to North Carolina, Saturday’s contest will feature Curry’s first meeting with top pick LaMelo Ball. Over his rookie season, Ball is averaging 14.6 points on 43.7% shooting from the field with 6.2 rebounds and 6.1 assists per game.
Before the Warriors suit up in Charlotte, here is how to watch or stream the contest and everything else you need to know.
