Our Charlotte Hornets vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Despite LaMelo Ball’s injury concerns, the Hornets proved that they can win games against cellar-dwelling teams. Charlotte is poised to earn their second straight win when it plays the Pelicans on the road. Ball is listed as a game-time decision, but the Hornets still have the personnel to beat the helpless Pelicans even without their starting point guard. Moreover, New Orleans is 0-10 SU in its last 10 games and 0-5 SU in its last 5 games at home. Only an explosive game from Zion Williamson can save the Pelicans from earning their seventh loss of the season.
Our betting prediction for the New Orleans Pelicans vs. the Charlotte Hornets: The Hornets will win.
