Hornets Spotlight

The Charlotte Hornets just pulled off their second-straight victory, while winning seven of their last eight games overall. The Hornets have been solid offensively at home where they rank 6th in points per game, 14th in field goal percentage, and 2nd in 3-point shooting. Defensively at home, the Hornets rank 27th in points per game, 11th in field goal percentage, 7th in 3-point shooting, and 28th in rebounding.

Final Say

Charlotte has been as hot as they come for bettors, going 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS in their last eight games, while they’ve been dominating this series with Minnesota wining 11 of their last 14 games at home against them. They’ve also won their last three meetings with them, winning by an average of 15 points per game. This isn’t the same old Timberwolves team though, they’ve been hot winning five of their last six games, while going 6-0 ATS during that span. This is a bad spot for the Hornets who just finished up a three-game road trip (1-2 ATS), now come home for one game, then head to Houston immediately after. Grab the free points and fade the Hornets in this spot.

Pick: Minnesota Timberwolves +2.5
