Washington Wizards vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
Thursday in the Association sees Washington host Charlotte at the Capital One Arena. The Wizards are last place in the Eastern Conference at 3-21 while the Hornets sit 13th with a 7-19 record. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Wizards earned a shock win over the Nuggets two weeks ago which saw them avoid setting the franchise record in consecutive losses. Since then, Washington has unsurprisingly returned to losing ways.
They come into this contest after having dropped their last three in a row, the most recent of which ended in a 112-98 defeat at home to the Celtics.
The big news around the Hornets camp is the return of Lamelo Ball. The superstar point guard had previously missed seven consecutive games before returning to the floor in Monday's 121-108 home loss to the 76ers.
Ball registered 26 minutes and despite struggling from the field, still managed to log 15 points, 11 assists and four steals. Hornets’ fans will be relieved to see Ball back in the team as Charlotte has a 1-6 record when the 23-year-old misses out.
Charlotte comes into this game having dropped nine of their last 10 overall and the team will be looking to snap out of a two-game losing streak in Washington.

Our Washington Wizards vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
Both teams come into this match having lost nine of their last 10. However, the visitors have the clear advantage here with Lamelo Ball having recently returned from injury. While the Hornets haven’t been great this season, they’ve shown a marked improvement when the young All-Star is on the court.
There isn’t much to be optimistic about with the Wizards this season. While they are dealing with various injuries, this is a team that is building for the future and simply isn’t yet close to being competitive on a nightly basis. Our Washington Wizards vs Charlotte Hornets prediction: Hornets -4.
