The out-of-form Charlotte Hornets travel to play an improving Washington Wizards team in their next assignment in the NBA. They enter this fixture as the 10th seed in the East standings, while the Wizards have moved up to 13th in the conference. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Wizards have won their last two games. Facing off with the Pacers at home on back-to-back nights after the All-Star break, Brian Keefe’s men have moved further away from the foot of the East standings.
They won the first game 112-105 before turning on the style in the follow-up fixture to win 131-118. The Wizards, who are seeking their first win of the season over the Hornets, have improved to 16-39.
While the Wizards have returned to action after the All-Star break as a renewed side, the Hornets have taken a step back. Charles Lee’s men went into the recess as one of the in-form teams with only one loss in 11 outings.
This isn’t the form they have resumed their season with, as they have lost back-to-back games. The Hornets, who’ve been at home in both matches, lost 105-101 to the Rockets in the first game and then 118-113 to the Cavaliers.
This run has seen them fail to move up in the play-in bracket, and, with a 26-31 record, they are 0.5 games ahead of their closest challengers for 10th spot.
