The French duo of the Charlotte Hornets, composed of Moussa Diabaté (2.08 m, 22 years old) and Tidjane Salaün (2.05 m, 19 years old), distinguished themselves in the victory in Memphis (94-119), particularly in the last quarter.
Tidjane Salaün, the youngest player in the NBA, continues to display a very, very high level of confidence while attempting shots in all directions, often from very far away. He found a little skill (5/12 on shots, including 3/10 on 3-pointers) in the second half to score 13 points in addition to his 5 rebounds. Like him, Moussa Diabaté finished the match strong by being very high on the passing lines. This notably allowed him to steal two balls at the end of the match to serve his compatriot or go straight for a dunk. He thus accumulated 10 points at 4/4 and 3 rebounds in just 12 minutes.
