It has been a fantastic night in Charlotte.

The Hornets are playing their first regular season game since changing their name from the Bobcats and with the development of point guard Kemba Walker, the addition of All-Star big man Al Jefferson last season and the signing of guard Lance Stephenson this offseason, expectations are higher than ever.

The Milwaukee Bucks traveled to Charlotte on Wednesday and there is a lot of buzz around them to after they added forward Jabari Parker, the No. 2 overall pick of the draft.

The Bucks were able to build a 24-point second half lead but the Hornets got it down to 15 by the end of the third quarter and trailed by just three after Khris Middleton made one of two free throws with seven seconds left. Kemba Walker brought the ball down court and drilled a 3-pointer to tie the game and send it to overtime.

Watch Kemba Walker calmly get down the court and his the game-tying bucket below.
