Devin Brown has played in 24 games (22 starts) for the Hornets this season and he is averaging 23.4 minutes, 10.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game. Brown is only shooting 39.8% from the floor but 41.1% from three point range. Still, the Hornets need more out of Brown if he is to continue to start. I would think that if he doesn’t step up soon the Hornets could turn to Darren Collison or Marcus Thornton as shooting guard.

The Hornets got outrebounded 51-34 and it was a big reason for the loss last night. Devin Brown led the way for the Hornets last night with 22 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals. Chris Paul was so-so with 15 points, 1 rebound, 7 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocked shots. David West pitched in with 12 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist. The Hornets are now 13-15 on the season.

The Hornets outlasted the Warriors last night in the Big Easy. Chris Paul led the way for the Hornets with 20 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists. David West pitched in with 14 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocked shots. Peja Stojakovic pitched in with 13 points and 2 assists in this game. The Hornets are now 13-14 on the year.

The Hornets will be without back-up center Sean Marks indefinitely with a strained muscle in his lower leg. Marks has played in 5 games (0 starts) for the Hornets this season and he is averaging 7.6 minutes, 1.0 point, 4.0 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game. The Hornets won’t miss Marks too much as he is the #3 center on the team.
