by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The Charlotte Hornets and Boston Celtics get ready to play the first of a back-to-back doubleheader over the next two days. Charlotte sits ninth in the East with a 2-2 record while Boston is second with a record of 4-1. Let's get right into our match prediction!
The Hornets will be playing both of the next two games against Boston in their home gym of the Spectrum Center. This is the third in a four-game home stand for Charlotte.
The hosts come into this clash with the defending champions off the back of a 138-133 win over the Raptors, snapping a two-game losing streak.
Charlotte’s been shooting the ball very well to start the year, ranking ninth in effective FG% (54.3%) and sixth in 3PT% (39.2%).
The Celtics don’t look to have experienced any kind of a championship hangover in the 2024/25 season. They won their first four games in a row which included wins over the Knicks and the Bucks.
They were finally dealt their first loss of the season on Wednesday in a rematch of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Pacers would get a sliver of revenge over Boston after pulling out a 135-132 overtime victory over the Celtics.
Boston comes into this matchup as the league’s top scoring team, averaging an impressive 125.8 points per contest.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics Prediction
The Charlotte Hornets are simply a different team when Lamelo Ball is healthy and playing well. He’s been superb in the early days of the season and the Hornets are already looking similar to the 2021/22 team that made it to the play-in tournament.
Where they continue to struggle, however, is on the defensive end. Charlotte will have no answer for Boston’s dynamic duo of Tatum and Brown, but they should at least be able to score some points on their home court. Our Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics prediction: over 231.5 points.
