Milwaukee Bucks:
The Milwaukee Bucks have lost 4 of their last 5 regular-season games and are now in 5th place in the Eastern Conference. In that stretch, the team made only 33.2% of their three-point attempts. On offence, Jrue Holiday and Giannis Antetokounmpou led the way for everyone, while many role players shot less than 40% from the field.

The club is currently considering Tyreke Evans, who has missed several years due to suspension.
Charlotte Hornets:
The Charlotte Hornets have lost 10 of their last 12 regular-season games, dropping to ninth place in the Eastern Conference. The Charlotte Hornets play some very entertaining basketball, but the team is very weak on the defensive end. A lot of playing time is getting Montrez Harrell, whose defensive skills are not good P.J. Washington also plays an important role in the Hornets’ rotation, but he often gets lost under his own basket.

The offensive efforts of Terry Rozier, Lamelo Ball, Miles Bridges and Kelly Oubre are not enough to compensate. An injury of Gordon Hayward, who is averaging a season-high 16.1 points, may have played a role.
