Brandon Ingram dropped 22 points, and Josh Hart had 15 points and 10 rebounds for New Orleans. JJ Reddick contributed with 14 points for the visiting team in the match.

Chicago Bulls vs Charlotte Hornets(116-115, 23rd November 2019)

These are the matches that every NBA fan lives for. Nail-biting finish, ‘dog eat dog’ situation during the whole match, and many nerve-wracking plays. Zach LaVine came big for the Bulls who scored career-high 49 points and a splendorous 3 pointer with 0.8 seconds left on the clock. Not to forget, this match also comprised of 13- 3 pointers from Zach. Notably, only ‘Splash Brothers (Klay Thompson & Stephen Curry) have scored 13 or more 3s in the NBA. At the end of the match, you got to feel for Hornets, though.
