Salaun said Monday that he's focused on becoming a more versatile contributor as he competes for playing time in Charlotte's rotation, Sam reports.
The Celtics last played on Monday and won their third straight game, while the Hornets won and covered their fifth straight game yesterday. The Hornets are now 31-31, sitting with the 9th seed. Now, they're only two games from the 6th seed. They're moving up fast. Do I trust the Hornets against a team like the Celtics that plays solid defense, holding teams below 100 in nine of their past 13 wins? The Hornets have won 15 of their last 18 games. Only three teams have beaten them since January 22nd. This is their first meeting this year, and the Celtics have won the previous six meetings. I'm buying this Hornets squad on the road with no rest.
