Charlotte Hornets (14-46) versus Minnesota Timberwolves (34-29) is an inter-conference game on Wednesday night at the Spectrum Center. The Hornets will try to find answers to their recent slump after going on a seven-game losing streak. They suffered an 18-point home loss to the Warriors earlier in the week, a game that once again highlighted their offensive struggles this season. The Hornets are 14th in the East with a .233 winning record and 36.5 games behind Cleveland at the top of the standings.

The Timberwolves, meanwhile, have found answers to their recent struggles. They are riding on a two-game winning run, coming off a comfortable 14-point victory over the struggling 76ers. The Wolves are seventh in the conference standings, 17.0 games behind the Timberwolves and only 0.5 behind the in-form Warriors above them. Bookies are convinced about their chances of winning on Wednesday, giving them a winning probability of 76%.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction

The Timberwolves should control this game from the start and blow the defensively poor Hornets out of the water. In their last five assignments, Charlotte has conceded an average of 118.6 points per game. Their attack has even been worse off, scoring an average of 95.4 PPG in the last five matches. Charlotte has also failed to cover the spread in five of their previous six matches, whereas the points total went under in four of their last five games. However, their recent home record against Minnesota has been great, winning three of their last four clashes. Still, Minnesota should bag this one. Our prediction for Charlotte Hornets vs Minnesota Timberwolves: Minnestota Timberwolves to cover -8.5 spread.
