Our Charlotte Hornets vs Washington Wizards Prediction
The Hornets have been largely anonymous in front of their home crowd. They have lost five consecutive matches at the Spectrum Center. Before this unwanted run, the Hornets had secured back-to-back wins, with their last win being against the Wizards, who they defeated 126-109.
The home team should be able to replicate the same outcome against a side that has been unable to impose itself this season. The Wizards have lost each of their last five away NBA games. They failed to cover in four of those outings, indicating a similar result. Our Charlotte Hornets vs Washington Wizards prediction: Charlotte Hornets -9.5.
