Although Cooper Flagg set the NBA record for most points by a teenager in a game with 49 against Charlotte, the Hornets still managed to win, 123-121. Kon Knueppel sank two free throws with 4.1 seconds remaining, while also achieving a career-high 34 points. The game was a back-and-forth affair between Knueppel and Flagg. The teenager committed an errant pass that Knueppel capitalized on with a foul, and although the rising star had the opportunity to force overtime, he couldn't convert. Despite this, Charlotte won five straight games, their longest winning streak since 2023.
Even so, when they face the Spurs on Saturday, San Antonio will be favored by 3.5 points. The Spurs haven't played since Wednesday, when, as slight underdogs in the betting odds, they managed to beat the Rockets 111-99 at the Toyota Center. Victor Wembanyama had a game with 28 points, 16 rebounds, and 5 blocks.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
It's clear that the best way for opponents to stop Wembanyama is with a moderately physical style of basketball, but coach Mitch Johnson says the Frenchman knows this and is actually coming out on top against such challenges.
These teams have been facing off since March 2025, when the game was a high-scoring affair, with the Hornets winning 145-134. Charlotte has won eight of its last ten meetings against San Antonio; a high-scoring game seems likely on Saturday, January 31.
Our prediction for Hornets vs Spurs is: Over 225.5 points.
