Our Golden State Warriors vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction

Fearless Forecast: The Hornets went toe-to-toe with the Warriors 117-119

Reason: The Hornets may not win this ballgame, but I believe they will give the Warriors a run for their money on Saturday. Charlotte has just dismantled the Lakers behind big scoring nights from Brandon Miller (26), Miles Bridges (25) and LaMelo Ball (30). Expect these three players to lead the charge for the Hornets, who are gradually becoming a dangerous young team because of their sheer firepower. The only factor that prevents me from going all in on the Hornets to win is their 8-14 record on the road. Other than that, Charlotte should give the Warriors an entertaining 48 minutes of basketball.
