The Boston Celtics are concluding their six-game road trip by visiting the Charlotte Hornets' homecourt tonight. The Celtics are considered to be the best team in the NBA based on their 58-16 record, but they have been stunned by a few opponents who are way below them in the standings.
One team that has upset Boston this season is the Charlotte Hornets. These two teams have only played one game this season and surprisingly, Boston lost and their poor shooting from downtown was a major reason for the loss.
Jaylen Brown missed all five shots he took from downtown and Kristaps Porzingis made only one three-pointer out of eight attempts. Sam Hauser went 1-for-9 from beyond the arc and Jrue Holiday went 1-for-3.
Even Jayson Tatum's 45 points were not enough to salvage the game for the Celtics, who led the game in the first half. Tatum went 7-for-15 in his three-point attempts.

LaMelo Ball led the Hornets' comeback, finishing the game with 36 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists. Gordon Hayward added 20 and Miles Bridges had a 14-point and 15-rebound double-double. The game went into overtime and the Hornets won 121-118.
