* Hornets' head coach Monty Williams said moments ago that shooting guard Eric Gordon will not play in tonight's game. According to Williams, part of Gordon's rehab from knee surgery is to avoid playing in back-to-back games. Gordon has played in 8 games since returning and has started 6 of those contests.
* Celtics' center Chris Wilcox is active for tonight's game and, according to Celtics' coach Doc Rivers, could see action if needed.
* Kevin Garnett (24,809) is 7 points away from passing Patrick Ewing (24,815) for 16th on the NBA's all-time scoring list.
* Paul Pierce is 4 steals away from becoming the Celtics' all-time leader in steals. He currently sits at 1,553 with the Celtics' all-time leader, Larry Bird, sits atop the list with 1,556.
* In a pregame interview, Austin Rivers told reporters that his mother, Doc's wife, is rooting for her son because she loves him more. When told of what his son said, Doc responded, "He's probably right. I'd love to argue with that."
