Hornets Team Report
(Wed, 07 Jan 2009 02:10:05 PST)

The Hornets will try to end their four-game West Coast road trip with a winning record when they play at Utah on Wednesday.

They improved to 2-1 on the trip when they beat the Lakers, 116-105, Tuesday night at the Staples Center. That victory came after the Lakers had won by double digits in two games at the New Orleans Arena earlier in the season.

"This was a must-win for us," forward David West said. "They had beaten us twice on our home floor, and it was all about us coming in here with a supreme effort."

The road trip is split into two sets of back-to-backs and all the games are against teams with winning records.

The victory against the Lakers came three days after a 105-101 loss at Denver, and the trip began with a 92-77 victory at Portland.
