The Milwaukee Bucks (7-4) visit the Charlotte Hornets (3-7) in an NBA 2025-26 game on Wednesday, November 12, at the Spectrum Center.

The Hornets look to halt a three-game skid when they host the Bucks on Wednesday. Recently, they fell, 121-111, to the Los Angeles Lakers, getting outscored 31-15 in the third quarter as their momentum stalled after halftime.

Despite the loss, Miles Bridges topscored for the Hornets with 34, while rookie wing Kon Knueppel stuffed the stat sheet with 19 points, 10 rebounds, and 9 assists. 

However, injuries are still a major concern for the Hornets. On Wednesday, they'll miss the services of key players LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller, with Collin Sexton and Pat Connaughton listed as day-to-day.

This could make life easier for the Bucks, who are coming off a 116-114 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. They trailed by nine points in the quarter of that game, but managed to come back in the final period and steal the win.

Giannis Antetokounmpo led the charge for the Bucks with 30 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists. However, he is currently listed day-to-day due to a knee injury.

If the Greek Freak doesn't play, the Bucks will rely on the likes of Ryan Rollins, Kyle Kuzma, and Myles Turner to step up.

Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction

Without LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller, the Hornets will be missing their young scoring punch on Wednesday. It also doesn't help that they don't have the defensive chops to make up, as they rank 26th in the league in defensive rating (120.3).

The Bucks might miss their star player Giannis Antetokounmpo on Wednesday, but they are still the favorites to win this game. Our prediction for the Charlotte Hornets vs Milwaukee Bucks match is: Bucks (-5.5) cover the spread.
