Washington Wizards vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
Eastern Conference action in the NBA on Thursday sees the 15th-place Washington Wizards hosting the 13th-placed Charlotte Hornets. Let’s get right into the match prediction!
It’s been a rebuilding season to forget for the Wizards who possess the worst record in the NBA with roughly a third of the regular season in the books. A 123-105 away loss to the Thunder on Monday was the latest defeat for the Wiz, who see their record drop to 4-23.
It also marked Washington’s second loss in a row and their fifth from their last six games overall. Alex Sarr, the second overall pick in the draft, is listed as questionable for this one after missing out in their last game. They also could be without promising youngster Bilal Coulibaly, who is also listed as questionable.
The Hornets, despite recently getting back their superstar point guard Lamelo Ball, have been unable to break out of their losing run.
Charlotte has lost their last five games in a row following a 114-101 loss at home against the Houston Rockets. It was the Hornets’ fifth loss in a row and also marked their ninth loss in their last 10 overall.
The visitors have only managed seven victories so far this campaign to go along with 22 defeats, placing them 13th in the East standings.

Our Washington Wizards vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
These two teams faced off just last week in this gym with the Wizards walking away victorious on that occasion. The Hornets therefore could have a bit of added incentive and will be boosted by the fact that they have their best player back in the team.
Lamelo Ball has the kind of talent to single-handedly drag his team to wins and we wouldn’t be surprised if he did here as well. Additionally, can have a respectable defense at times while Washington consistently struggles. Our Washington Wizards vs Charlotte Hornets prediction: Hornets -3.
