The Charlotte Hornet's 10-game winning streak ended with the 111-99 loss to the Phoenix Sons. Phoenix got big nights from Devon Booker with 30 points and 10 assists, plus 24 points each from Jalen Green and Colin Gillespie. For Charlotte, Lamello Ball led with 22 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists. All strong showing put him in rare company, as he's now the eighth player in NBA history to hit at least 20 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 assists in 100 games before turning 25. That list includes stars like LeBron James, Luca Don Chitch, and Magic Johnson, and is the most ever for the Hornet's franchise. The defeat dropped Charlotte to 32 wins and 33 losses, putting them 10th in the Eastern Conference. They started hot, hitting 9 of their first 11 shots, but cooled off sharply after that. Phoenix improved to 37 and 27, despite missing players like Dylan Brooks, Mark Williams,

and Grayson Allen to injuries. They have won four of their last five games. The Sons head to Milwaukee next, while the Hornets host the Portland Trail Blazers. DNN is brought to you by our sponsor link in the description. Some people meditate. I just lay down and press play. S-L-L-I-S-O-L-P-L-O.
