Houston Rockets vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Carlos Zabala | in NBA Picks
In Toronto, the Rockets got their 19th win of the season by beating the Raptors 114-110. For the Rockets, after falling in the NBA Cup semifinals against the Thunder, it is a fairly accessible stretch of the schedule that they should take advantage of by facing teams with a losing record before the end of 2025. Specifically, they beat the struggling Pelicans, they beat the Raptors, they will face the Hornets on Monday with a record of 7-21 and next Thursday they will face the Pelicans again.
However, it was difficult for the Rockets to beat the Raptors in the middle of a game with many errors by both teams. Both teams committed 21 turnovers and the Rockets prevailed even though the Raptors capitalized on 31 points from Houston's turnovers. The Rockets were able to come back even though Toronto had a maximum lead of 16 points at one point. It was the Rockets' first win in Toronto in five years, thanks in part to a strong night from Dillon Brooks with 27 points.
The Hornets beat the Rockets in Houston in their season opener, but are on a four-game losing streak heading into the rematch in Charlotte.

Our Houston Rockets vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
In the first game between the Rockets and the Hornets, LaMelo Ball was key with 34 points. However, the Hornets star, dealing with a left calf injury, is just getting back on the court and in the loss to the 76ers he remained seated. He'll likely be back since he came back from his injury when he played against the Wizards and did pretty well, but there's still little reason to believe the third-lowest PPG team in the NBA can counter the Rockets. Our prediction for Rockets vs Hornets is: Rockets -6.5.
