Miles Bridges showcased his shooting prowess by sinking seven 3-pointers and leading the team with 33 points on 11 of 20 shooting, while Brandon Miller contributed 22 points along with six rebounds and four assists.

The Boston Celtics have already secured the top seed in the Eastern Conference and are on track to clinch the number one overall seed in the NBA soon.

Jayson Tatum led the team with 23 points, while Kristaps Porzingis contributed 19 points, 10 rebounds, and four blocked shots. The Celtics boast the second-highest scoring offense in the league, averaging 120.9 points per game, and tend to score more points at home compared to away games during the 2023-24 season (123.3 at home versus 118.7 on the road).

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics Prediction
There is no questioning that the Celtics could easily blow their opponents away here, especially with the Hornets on the end of a back-to-back, but this is a massive line even for this formidable Boston squad. In addition, with OKC and Sacramento to come, the Celtics could opt for a few changes here in preparation for the playoffs. The visitors should win this match, but we feel the hosts will keep the scoreline respectable. Our Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics prediction: Charlotte Hornets +17.5.
