Charlotte Hornets Betting Preview
The Charlotte Hornets have been doing it tough lately as they’ve lost six of their last eight games overall, but they will be feeling much better after snapping a three-game skid with a 111-100 win over the Bucks on Wednesday. Miles Bridges led the team with 20 points, six rebounds and six assists, Collin Sexton and Kon Knueppel each scored 16 points while Tre Mann chipped in with 13 points off the bench. As a team, the Hornets shot 44 percent from the field and 12 of 40 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 35 points in the first quarter to storm out to a 22-point lead before the Bucks rallied late to keep the final scores respectable.
Milwaukee Bucks Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks have been in decent form as they’ve split their last eight games and they will be out for revenge after getting routed by the Hornets on Wednesday. Ryan Rollins led the team with 25 points and six assists on 10 of 15 shooting, Myles Turner added 21 points on seven of 14 shooting while Bobby Portis chipped in with 14 points and eight rebounds. As a team, the Bucks shot 45 percent from the field and 12 of 30 from the 3-point line as they really struggled without Giannis Antetokounmpo on the court and they were always a few steps behind after allowing the Hornets off to a quick start. Kyle Kuzma had a rough night as he shot just three of 12 for his eight points while Cole Anthony finished with just four points on two of 12 shooting off the bench.
Charlotte v Milwaukee Free Prediction
The Hornets are still missing Josh Green and Grant Williams, but they are expecting to have LaMelo Ball back in the lineup, while the Bucks have ruled out Kevin Porter Jr again but have listed Giannis Antetokounmpo as probable for this contest. The Hornets were able to stop a three-game rot with a comfortable win over the Bucks on Wednesday, but it’s going to be tough to replicate that effort for a second game in a row. I like the Bucks to get their revenge with a win at home in this spot, but I am expecting the Hornets to hang around and at least keep this one to single digits in the end.
