Hornets Reactions: Terry Rozier buries game-winner to stun Curry-less Warriors

Terry Rozier’s buzzer-beating game-winner sealed a stunning comeback in the final seconds on Saturday as the Hornets knocked off the Warriors, 102-100.

Facing a Warriors side that lost Steph Curry moments before tip-off, the Hornets looked like a side that had missed a week of games and practice. A game of runs saw five ties and 18 lead changes, but it was the Warriors who led late in the fourth.

Rozier, though, scored the final 10 points for the Hornets, burying a number of threes in the fourth quarter before hitting two technical free throws to tie the game with 9.3 seconds left after Draymond Green was ejected.

He then capped it off with a game-winner as time expired, giving Charlotte its most improbable win of the season.
