LaMelo Ball put on a shooting clinic on Friday night, leading the Charlotte Hornets to a 116-111 victory over the Indiana Pacers. Ball scored 31 points on 10-of-18 shooting, hitting 7-of-12 from 3-point range.
Buddy Hield led the Pacers with 25 points, while Tyrese Haliburton added 19 points and 13 assists. However, it wasn't enough to overcome Ball's hot shooting and the Hornets' balanced offense.
The Hornets led by as many as 15 points in the third quarter, but the Pacers fought back to cut the deficit to just two points with under two minutes remaining. However, Ball hit a clutch 3-pointer to put the game away and seal the victory for Charlotte.
The Hornets now improve to 11-12 on the season, while the Pacers fall to 12-13.
