The Charlotte Hornets will play host to the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Spectrum Center in the NBA on Wednesday night. The Hornets (14-46) are 14th in the Eastern Conference, while the Timberwolves (34-29) are seventh in the West. Let’s get into the match prediction!
The Charlotte Hornets are in all sorts of trouble at present and are now hoping to avoid an eighth straight defeat after going down 119-101 to the Warriors on Monday.
While Miles Bridges put up an impressive 35 points on 11 of 20 shooting, the team concerted just 39% of their attempts from the field and made 11 of 40 from beyond the arc.
The Hornets are the third-lowest-scoring team in the NBA this season (105.1 PPG), but they have performed better on defence, allowing 112.9 PPG (13th overall).
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves are 4-6 in their last 10 matches but will be looking to rebuild momentum after notching up a second win on the bounce, beating the 76ers 126-112 at home last night.
Naz Reid and Nickeil Alexander-Walker both crossed the 20-point mark, while as a team, Minnesota shot a sizzling 56% from the field and made 18 of 40 attempts from long range.
The Timberwolves are averaging 112.3 points per game (20th in the league), but they are a top-five defence that allows just 109.1 PPG.
