Al Jefferson was thrilled when the Charlotte Hornets traded for Mo Williams -- and not only because they're best friends. Jefferson said Williams' outside shooting and passing ability has helped make his job a little easier in the low post. "That's one of the things I love about him being here," Jefferson said of Williams, who he got to know growing up in Mississippi. "When the game gets tight, people are going to double me. When you have a chance to kick it out to a knockdown shooter, it takes the pressure off me." Jefferson had 21 points and 16 rebounds, Williams added 20 points and 13 assists, and the Hornets beat the Los Angeles Lakers 104-103 on Tuesday night for their third win in four games.
