The Charlotte Hornets will be at home in their next NBA assignment, against the Orlando Magic. With the postseason fast approaching, they enter this game as the 10th seed in the East, more than three games behind the Magic, who are the fifth seed. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Hornets got back to winning ways with an emphatic result against the Heat. Charles Lee’s men, who have been shaky lately and had lost three of five games before the Heat game, won 136-106.
They win, their 35th of the season, which saw them return to being above .500 and tightened their grip on the last play-in spot. Charlotte has won the last two meetings with Orlando and leads this series 2-1.
The Magic arrive in Charlotte seeking to avoid losing this series and, most importantly, looking to bounce back. Jamahl Mosley’s men have lost their last two matches, disrupting a strong momentum after they had won seven in a row.
The Magic were pegged back in Atlanta to end that winning streak, and as they returned home, they were unable to outscore a stubborn OKC side.
Suffering their 30th loss of the season, the Magic were outlasted 113-108 by the Thunder. The visitors want to avoid the play-in for the playoffs but are just 0.5 games ahead of the seventh seed.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Orlando Magic Prediction
Our prediction for the Charlotte Hornets v the Orlando Magic is that the Charlotte Hornets wins. The Hornets have been blowing hot and cold recently, but we still have them as our favorites to win. This is because they have had a strong run this term against the Magic and have won the last two encounters.
Another advantage is that they are coming off a dominant win over the Heat, which suggests they may be back to their stride. The Magic on their part have hit a snag and have lost their last two fixtures. On top of this, they are missing key players, including Anthony Black and Jonathan Isaac.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
