The Hornets took part in Fan Appreciation Night on Oct. 13 in Shanghai.

NBA players and coaches from the Clippers and Hornets—along with NBA officials, including commissioner Adam Silver—were all present to show their appreciation for the thousands of fans who came out to celebrate the day.

It was also the birthday of both Clippers head coach Doc Rivers and forward Paul Pierce, who received best wishes from the cheering crowd.

The Hornets won the first of their two-game series 106-94 in Shenzhen Sunday.

Point guard Chris Paul, who injured his finger during practice before that game, seems to have recovered, and he and his "fan partner" won the shooting competition.

After the Clippers finished their one-hour interaction with the fans, it was show time for the Hornets.

And no doubt the most popular player in that squad is their new guard, Jeremy Lin, who arrived from the Los Angeles Lakes this off-season. The fans were eager to see their favorite player in action and wish him well for the new season.
