Warriors in town today to take on the Hornets in a merry game of basketball. Game tips at 7 Central.

The Warriors are 7-20 on the season, 3-13 on the road. They’ve lost six straight and ten of their last eleven. They’re third in the league scoring 106ppg, but the 112ppg they give up is worst in the NBA. Monta Ellis leads the attack, scoring about 25 a game.

The Warriors are suffering from numerous injuries, and have been running with an eight-man rotation for the past few games. Kelenna Azubuike, Raja Bell, Andris Biedrins, Mikki Moore and Ronny Turiaf will all be unavailable tonight.

The Hornets are coming off a loss in Toronto on Sunday and are 12-14 overall this season.
