The TV commentator of the Charlotte Hornets couldn't contain his emotions after Gordon Hayward's epic slam against the Sacramento Kings on Monday. He definitely loves his own team more than anything else.
Some might say that he overreacted after Hayward's facial against Kings guard De'Aaron Fox. But the reality is that it was a very close game with over a minute left. Any diehard Hornets fan would understand the emotions running through the commentator's body.
