Charlotte Hornets (32-31) and Miami Heat (34-29) will clash in the Eastern Conference on Friday night at Spectrum Center. The Hornets have shown remarkable improvement this season, sitting in the ninth spot with a .508 win percentage. They’re the best success story in the NBA right now after going on a six-game winning run. A win against the Heat could also see them reduce the 2.5-game gap between themselves and the sixth-placed 76ers.
Miami Heat, on the other hand, are eighth in the standings, 12 games behind the table-topping Pistons. Like the Hornets, they’re in red-hot form at the moment, winning seven of their last 10 matches. Erik Spoelstra’s men defeated the Nets 126-110 on Thursday night to extend their winning run to three games. They’ll be charged up to maintain this momentum and possibly avoid the play-in tournament.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Miami Heat Prediction
Charlotte Hornets are the warm -250 betting favorites. They’ll be eager to maintain their winning momentum after cruising past the Celtics 89-118 on Thursday night. This performance highlighted their recent attacking prowess, as they averaged 122.83 PPG over their last six matches. However, Miami Heat is also a potent scoring side lately, averaging 123.3 PPG in their last eight matches. The visitors have previously dominated this fixture, going 5-1 over their last six clashes while covering the spread four times. They also boast a 4-2 record in their last six visits to the Hornets. Still, we expect the in-form Hornets to maximize their home advantage and edge it. Don’t be surprised if the total points go over 228.
