Lopez helps Hornets sting Bucks for much-needed win Dec 4th 2012, 03:56 Mon Dec 3, 2012 10:56pm EST (Reuters) - New Orleans' Robin Lopez ran off 11 straight points in the third quarter to spark the Hornets to a much needed 102-81 victory over the visiting Milwaukee Bucks on Monday. Seven-footer Lopez scored 21 points and his hot streak helped turned a two-point deficit into a 71-60 advantage as the Hornets cruised to the win. It was just the second win in 11 games for New Orleans (5-11), who are rebuilding with a young roster and were without top overall draft pick Anthony Davis for the eighth straight game due to ankle problems. The Bucks were led by Brandon Jennings' 25 points but they have lost six of their last eight to fall out of first place in the Central standings. Milwaukee were outscored 49-31 in the second half and shot just 38 percent for the game. Ryan Anderson paced the scoring for New Orleans with 22 and six Hornets finished in double figures.
