The Bulls can't seem to break their losing streak. On Sunday, they extended their season woes to nine losses after failing to defeat the Pistons in Chicago. Back at the United Center, they prepare to host the Hornets, and the Bulls, now 10 games out of 500, are the underdogs at 7.5 points.
Against the Pistons, the Bulls played without Jaden Ivey, who will be out for at least two weeks with knee soreness. Bulls coach Billy Donovan returned to the Chicago bench after missing several games due to family reasons. In Sunday's game, the game was close until the third quarter, which Detroit dominated 44-26. Giddey had a 27-point night, including five three-pointers, but Chicago's downfall was committing 23 turnovers.
That same day, the Hornets defeated the Wizards. With that victory, Charlotte avoided a three-game losing streak for the first time in 2026. The Hornets entered the game at Capital One Arena as 10.5-point favorites and won, covering the spread. As for the betting odds, the Hornets' record against the spread is one of the best in the league at 36-22-0.

Our Chicago Bulls vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
The Hornets' recent blowout of the Wizards was also one of the highlights of LaMelo Ball's career, as he sank a career-high 10 three-pointers out of 15 attempts.
While the Bulls have had a nightmare February, the Hornets are connecting better than ever. Kon Knuckleball continued building on his outstanding season, scoring 28 points in the win against Charlotte and Washington, and Miller joined the team's stars, contributing another 22 points.
Our prediction for Bulls vs Hornets is: Hornets -7.5.
