The Charlotte Hornets will play host to the Phoenix Suns at the Spectrum Center in the NBA on Thursday night. The Hornets (40-36) are eighth in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Suns (42-34) are seventh in the West. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Charlotte Hornets have been one of the most improved teams across the second half of the season, and are now 7-3 in their last 10 games after thumping the Nets 117-86 on Tuesday.
Brandon Miller was the team’s top scorer in the last match with 25 points. Since the start of 2026, the Hornets have the sixth-best record in the NBA and the third-best across their last 15 games.
Charlotte are 19-19 at home this season, but have lost nine of their last 10 against this opponent, including their only matchup this season at the start of March.
Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns' two-game win streak was halted by the Orlando Magic 115-111 on Tuesday, a result that leaves them with a record of 3-7 in their last 10 games.
One major positive for the Suns, though, is that Dillon Brooks returned to the court in the last match. The Canadian was a key player for the team during their strong run in the first half of the season.
Phoenix are 18-19 on the road and will be missing Haywood Highsmith and Amir Coffey, with Mark Williams listed as a doubt.
