Stephen Curry scored 26 points in his homecoming game in Charlotte, leading the Golden State Warriors to a 132-125 victory over the Hornets. The Warriors, who won their fifth game in six outings, were bolstered by strong performances from Brandon Podziemski and Gui Santos. Despite a strong showing from Charlotte's Brandon Miller (33 points) and LaMelo Ball (27 points), and a significant paint advantage, the Hornets couldn't overcome the Warriors' perimeter shooting and late-game execution.
