No matter the result of the matchup between the Brooklyn Nets and Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday evening, a team with a name ending in ‘E-T-S’ would be celebrating.
Brooklyn found themselves behind by 17 points in the first quarter, with news before the game that Cam Thomas would not be playing due to lower back stiffness.
There were rumors circulating about Thomas possibly being traded by Brooklyn, so it remains unclear if his absence was due to his trade status or if it was due to an injury.
Only time will tell on that matter, but despite missing their top scorer early on, Jordi Fernandez’s team fought back with determination.
