Denver Nuggets vs Charlotte Hornets prediction

There are better options out there than this massive line, especially with the Nuggets on the end of a back to back. Still, the Charlotte Hornets continue to pile up the losses, and they’ve failed to cover 4 of their last 5 games despite being massive underdogs. The Nuggets should have a field day offensively, and they’ve won 8 of the last 9 meetings against the Hornets. Give me the Hornets in a road beat down if forced to pick.
