The Charlotte Hornets struggled against the Chicago Bulls, showcasing rust after a long break. Ayo Dosunmu led the Bulls with a strong first quarter, while the Hornets' offense faltered despite the return of Tidjane Salaün and Miles Bridges. Mark Williams made an impactful return with 15 points and 9 rebounds, but the team's three-point shooting was dismal, finishing at 8 of 46.

Isaiah Wong's performance continues to impress, earning him more minutes in the rotation. The Hornets will look to bounce back in their next game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
