The Raptors are 5-5 in their last 10 games and have covered the spread in seven of them. Their last two wins came against the Wizards and Nets, scoring over 110 points and holding their opponent to 105 or less. Scottie Barnes remains the Raptors' most dominant player in both facets of the game, and he is so important that Rajakovic said they go as far in games as Barnes goes.

On the other hand, the Hornets lost Tuesday to the Orlando Magic by 7 points in a game where they had been underdogs by 4.5 points. LaMelo led the Hornets again with 25 points and 9 assists. It's becoming a trend for the Hornets to waste good games from Ball, as they lost even though he went 9-13 from the field.

At least Lee remains optimistic and believes he's on the right path to building a winning franchise. But his recent losing streak seems to suggest otherwise; after allowing the Thunder to score 144 points, 122 against the Heat, and 111 against the Magic, who are second-to-last in the NBA in PPG this season.

Our Toronto Raptors vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction

The Hornets and Raptors have only met once this season, on October 30 in Charlotte, in a 138-133 Hornets victory in a game where Ball scored 19 points. However, Rajakovic was without Scottie Barnes and other key players that night. The Raptors are a bit behind the Heat, who hold the last Play-In spot, but since the pressure eased off after their injury-plagued season and more playing time was given to the youngsters, Toronto's wins have increased, and its ATS record is quite consistent in terms of betting. Our prediction for Raptors vs Hornets is: Raptors -6.5.

Prediction:

 

Raptors -6.5.
