Hornets beat Cavs to keep playoff hopes alive. MORE:
CLEVELAND — With one game left, the Charlotte Hornets are still in the playoff chase.Kemba Walker scored 23 points and Charlotte kept its late-season post-season push going by pulling away in the fourth quarter for a 124-97 win Tuesday night over the Cleveland Cavaliers, whose painful first season rebuilding without LeBron James is finally over.
Once they finished off the Cavs, Walker and several teammates watched the end of Detroit's game on a TV in their locker room. After the Pistons came back, Walker dejectedly shook his head as he walked from his locker to the shower area. The Cavs dropped their 10th in a row to finish 19-63, the fourth-worst record in franchise history and just the fifth time they've failed to win at least 20.
"Everything," Sexton said when asked what changed in him from Game 1 to 82."It's a whole change. Coming into the league people said I couldn't shoot and stuff like that, but I just kept working on it through the season and it got better and better."
