Our Charlotte Hornets vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction
The Bucks are worthy favourites here and should go on to win this match against a Hornets side that have been very poor for the most part of the season. However, Milwaukee have not been as good on the road as they are on their home court, and we feel that the Hornets will be able to get closer in this one than they did last time out. Therefore, our Charlotte Hornets vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction: Charlotte Hornets +12.5.
