were tight for a short while. Things began to spiral out of control for Charlotte in the second quarter, with the Kings behind by just five points. Four players in Sacramento scored 19 points or more, including Malik Monk, who finished with 20 points after coming off the bench in his return to Charlotte. In the meantime, the Hornets have now lost 27 games this season. This squad is not performing to its full potential due to a number of significant injuries, but youngster Brandon Miller and Miles Bridges sent comments for their team following the game.
Brandon Miller advised, “Just stay together as a team; don’t get too separated from each other.” “I firmly believe that our relationship, both on and off the court, will only get stronger with time. We simply need to enter the following game, as I mentioned, with a new mindset and attempt to win.
Any player, coach, or even fan would go crazy after watching the Hornets’ recent performance. However, Miller understands as a rookie that there is still work to be done. Even if they haven’t played well for the past week or so, there is still hope and spirit in the locker room despite losing. Miller believes that a portion of the issue is also the absence of
I believe that when we first came out, our vibe wasn’t ready. We should, in my opinion, have a short-term memory and adopt a new mindset before the following game.
Bridges responded, “I really don’t know,” when asked how the squad could increase their effort. “They were receiving all of their requests. That, in my opinion, undermined our self-assurance. Our entire energy level dropped as soon as our offensive failed. All we need to do is play better and show more intensity.
From the tip, it appeared on the glass that the Kings were the more physically strong team. Sacramento used their physicality to control the game’s tempo and won that match 48–35. Bridges believes that in addition to increasing energy, the defence must also improve.
We’re not always the best on defence, but we do okay at times. All we need to do is have a genuine identity and play the same every time. Every game, in my opinion, we seem to lose our identity, so we should simply be true to who we are.
Charlotte’s defensive efficiency is ranked 29th. Many teams from all around the floor are difficult for them to stop. Again, it is more difficult to accomplish all the little things that count when important players like Mark Williams, Cody Martin, and others are absent.
