The Charlotte Hornets continue to struggle with injuries as the season progresses. Key players like Mark Williams and Cody Martin are sidelined, and LaMelo Ball's status is uncertain due to a tailbone contusion.
Despite these setbacks, Ball has showcased his talent, scoring 34 points in both of the first two games and setting a franchise record for three-pointers. The Hornets face the Miami Heat tonight, hoping to turn their luck around.
