Spread & Over/Under Predictions for Hornets vs. Timberwolves

Can the Hornets cover the spread?

Each game day, we at All Hornets will release an article on our thoughts on the spread and the over/under of Charlotte Hornets games. The star ratings next to the play describe the overall confidence in that particular play.

Star ratings:

1 Star - Not very confident

2 Star - A little confident

3 Star - Fairly confident

4 Star - Very confident

5 Star - Should be a lock to happen

Spread: Timberwolves -5.5

2 Star play on the Hornets (+5.5): If you look at the two teams' body of work, you'd lean to laying the points here. But for some reason, I keep turning back to the Hornets. With Anthony Edwards being doubtful for this game and Jaden McDaniels out, I like Charlotte's chances to not only keep it close but potentially win even without LaMelo Ball. Another win like the one they had over Boston recently would start to turn the narrative on this Charlotte team.

Over/Under: 220.5

1 Star play on the over: I don't like this total at all. Mainly because my projected final score is one point over the number. This has the makings of a low-scoring affair, but I can at least put my faith in the Hornets' defensive woes continuing. Let's lean over.

My picks this season

ATS: 6-6 (50%)

O/U: 6-6 (50%)

Overall: 12-12 (50%)
