The Charlotte Hornets have the NBA’s longest active winning streak at nine games and will try for 10 at Spectrum Center in uptown when they host the Eastern Conference-leading Detroit Pistons on Monday.
Charlotte center Moussa Diabate said there’s a recipe for beating the Pistons.
“Being physical, so it’s going to be a physical game, and running them out. I think we have a very fast-paced team, and if we do everything we’re supposed to do, we’re going to be all right,” he said.
The team-record 10-game winning streak was set in 1998.
