Charlotte Hornets vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The Brooklyn Nets face off against the Charlotte Hornets at the Spectrum Center for this NBA Eastern Conference matchup. It’s been a struggle for both teams at the start of the season, each with their unique reasons for their respective slow starts. The 3-6 Nets have been dealing with arguably the biggest sideshow in the NBA with the Kyrie Irving situation as the mercurial point guard was recently suspended five games by the Nets organization. On the other side, the 3-6 Hornets are dealing with a host of injuries to a number of their key players and will come into this game shorthanded yet again. Both teams are playing the second game of a back-to-back and it’s the visitors that find themselves as significant favorites according to the oddsmakers.

Charlotte Hornets & Brooklyn Nets Squad Analysis
Kevin Durant will surely be the difference maker in this game as the Nets All-Star has been playing some of the best basketball of his career in the face of all the uncertainty surrounding the organization. KD is averaging 32 points per game this season, tied for the highest mark in his career, on an efficient 51% shooting from the field. For the Hornets, the absence of Lamelo Ball, Gordon Hayward and Terry Rozier was evident for all to see against the Grizzlies as Charlotte had to depend on the likes of Kelly Oubre and PJ Washington to lead the team on the offensive end. All three players are expected to miss this clash as well.
Charlotte Hornets - Brooklyn Nets Key Points
- The Brooklyn Nets have the highest field goal percentage in the NBA at 48.9%, in large part due to Durant’s continued efficient shooting.
- The Hornets rank 24th in shooting percentage at 45.3%.
- The Hornets were limited to 38% shooting in the previous game and 29.6% from three on 27 attempts.
- Brooklyn is coming off holding their opponents to under 100 points for the first time this season in the win against the Wizards.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction
We’re going to back the Brooklyn Nets to win this game and cover the -5 point spread. There is simply no way we can back the Charlotte Hornets in this situation with the injuries that they have. When Kelly Oubre is the primary ball handler on pick-and-roll situations your offense is going to struggle. Expect another excellent Durant performance as well as the role players to step up yet again and get the Nets their first back-to-back wins of the season.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
