Charlotte comes into Thursday night’s game looking to continue its moment after several big wins. The team’s young core has propelled the offense and is best when LaMelo Ball is able to push the tempo and create opportunities in transition. He is great at finding his teammates in space when controlling the speed of play, but the team’s fitness seems to be a weak spot as sustaining energy through all four quarters has been a struggle.

Thursday night’s game will be a physical battle and execution at both ends of the court will be key. With Ball’s ability to play a quick-paced game, Dallas will likely look to slow the game down and control the tempo while Charlotte will look to put the Mavericks under high pressure and force turnovers. If the Hornets are able to play strong under the basket and take care of the ball, they have a real shot at picking up yet another win and moving up in the Eastern Conference standings.
