CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Miles Bridges hit a 3-pointer with 6.6 seconds left in overtime and the Charlotte Hornets ended a six-game losing streak with a 121-118 victory Monday to the Boston Celtics.
LaMelo Ball finished with 36 points, nine rebounds and eight assists, while Gordon Hayward had 20 points for the Hornets, who came back from being down by 18 points.
