KEY GAME INFORMATION
CHARLOTTE: GUARDS: LANCE STEPHENSON started chucking and padding stats after missing the All-Star team last season, fueling Indiana's collapse. He's a potentially solid role player, but if he tries to be the alpha for the Hornets, it could be a long season . . . KEMBA WALKER has become a solid playmaker, though he'll lose some touches while playing alongside Stephenson . . . The Hornets seem to be done with GERALD HENDERSON, who will stay in the rotation, but see a reduced role with all the Hornets' offseason acquisitions . . . GARY NEAL can play both guard spots as a high-scoring sixth man . . . P.J. HAIRSTON needs to stay out of trouble off the court if he's to have any chance of becoming a three-point specialist off the bench . . . BRIAN ROBERTS steps in as a No. 3 point guard. FORWARDS: Charlotte reloaded in the frontcourt, but MICHAEL KIDD-GILCHRIST will likely claim a starting job due to his defense. It's probably time to accept that MKG will never have much of an offensive game . . . CODY ZELLER will have every opportunity to grab a starting job early on. Unfortunately, his inability to score in traffic limits his effectiveness . . . MARVIN WILLIAMS will see major minutes at both forward spots. He's a capable defender who has added a three-point shot to his repertoire . . . He's still a teenager, so he may not carve out major minutes this year, but NOAH VONLEH has by far the most upside among their 4's and 5's. He's a potentially elite stretch-4 . . . JEFF TAYLOR's Achilles is close to 100 percent. He has a shot to re-claim a rotation spot. CENTERS: AL JEFFERSON is a flawed player, but he gives Charlotte exactly what the team is looking for: A low-post threat on the offensive end of the court. Like Walker, he'll also suffer a bit with Stephenson coming in, but he's still the focal point of this offense . . . He's not quite a bust because he can defend, but BISMACK BIYOMBO hasn't shown any semblance of an offensive game.
DENVER: GUARDS: TY LAWSON is the facilitator in Denver's up-tempo offense. Durability is a concern, as he missed 15-plus games for the third time in five career seasons during the 2013-14 campaign . . . ARRON AFFLALO is what the Nuggets need. He'll be a No. 3 scorer and, more importantly, gives them a big defensive upgrade . . . Denver can't afford to play RANDY FOYE so many minutes. He's a serviceable reserve, but they won't win games if he's playing 30-plus minutes . . . The Afflalo acquisition blocks him, but GARY HARRIS is tough-nosed on defense and a solid deep threat . . . NATE ROBINSON might unseat Foye for the sixth-man role by midseason, but first he'll have to work his way back from a torn ACL . . . Combo guard ERICK GREEN will pick up garbage-time minutes. FORWARDS: KENNETH FARIED is one of the few bright spots in Denver. He can't generate his own offense, but he's effective filling lanes and picking up garbage points in this system . . . If he's ever 100 percent healthy again, DANILO GALLINARI will be the go-to scorer on this team. But he's a question mark after missing all of last season with a torn ACL . . . WILSON CHANDLER won't be relied on as heavily this season, but he's going to get major minutes as a floor spacer who can play the 2-guard or either forward spot . . . Stretch-4 DARRELL ARTHUR is a solid rotation guy when he's shooting well, but he was laying bricks last season . . . QUINCY MILLER has intriguing athleticism, but remains a raw project . . . Even if he wasn't coming off a torn ACL, J.J. HICKSON would not make this rotation. CENTERS: TIMOFEY MOZGOV may have grabbed the lead in this center-by-committee group with his strong finish to last season . . . A stress fracture cost JaVALE McGEE his chance to secure a full-time role last season. The tantalizing, but consistently disappointing, big man should make the rotation, but has an uphill battle to earn minutes . . . JUSUF NURKIC is a high-upside project as a 7-footer with a legit NBA offensive skill set.

*Hornets-Nuggets Preview* =========================

By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer

Charlotte (19-27) at Denver (19-28), 9:00 p.m. EDT

With Al Jefferson back and Gerald Henderson contributing more, the Charlotte Hornets are trying to extend a positive stretch despite losing their top playmaker.

As they forge ahead without Kemba Walker, the Hornets look to avoid dropping back-to-back games for the first time in 2015 Saturday night when they visit the Denver Nuggets.

Charlotte (19-27) had won nine of 11 - including a 3-0 mark without Walker - before Wednesday's 95-86 loss at San Antonio in the opener of a unusual three-game road swing that concludes Monday in the nation's capital.

Walker totaled 23 points on 7-of-31 shooting in two games while trying to play through a left knee injury before sitting out Monday's 76-71 home win over New York. He underwent surgery Wednesday to repair a torn lateral meniscus and will be out at least six weeks.

The point guard leads the Hornets with 18.8 points and 5.2 assists per game, though coach Steve Clifford believes his team still has enough to compete for an Eastern Conference playoff spot until he returns.

"We can take the easy way out when we're playing without (Kemba)," he said, "but obviously, to me there is a toughness and intelligence about the group of guys that are playing right now that should allow us to win here going forward."

Jefferson should be able to help as he continues to work his way back to pre-injury form. He finished with 17 points and 16 rebounds against the Spurs in his fifth game since missing nine due to a groin injury.

Jefferson had 22 points on 10-of-13 shooting in a 110-82 home win over Denver on Dec. 22 that remains Charlotte's largest margin of victory this season. He's averaged 27.7 points and 10.3 boards in his last three matchups with the Nuggets.

Henderson scored a team-best 18 points Wednesday and has averaged 17.5 in the four games Walker has missed.

The Hornets have scored 82.5 per game over their last four, but they've allowed a league-low 89.8 in 2015. They'll look to continue that effort as they try to avoid losing two straight for the first time since a five-game skid from Dec. 26-Jan. 2.

Denver has been scuffling offensively, averaging 93.1 points in its last seven games after scoring 105.0 over the previous 11.

The Nuggets (19-28), losers in eight of nine, look to bounce back from their worst offensive performance in nearly 11 years after shooting 33.3 percent and going 2 for 26 from 3-point range in Thursday's 99-69 loss at Memphis.

Wilson Chandler and Kenneth Faried were the only double-digit scorers for Denver, which had its lowest point total since a 93-67 loss at San Antonio on April 14, 2004.

"In these kinds of situations, I'd have more respect if guys just told me that they didn't feel like playing from the start," coach Brian Shaw said. "I'm just sick and tired."

Ty Lawson, averaging a team-high 16.6 points, has totaled 14 on 5-of-23 shooting in his last two games. He had 18 points last month versus Charlotte and has scored 20.7 per game over his last three meetings.

The Nuggets had a five-game home winning streak snapped in this series with a 101-98 loss Jan. 29, 2014. Lawson did not play due to a shoulder injury, while Jefferson keyed Charlotte's victory with 35 points and 11 rebounds.
