Nuggets at Hornets picks and predictions
Prediction
Nuggets 124, Hornets 112
Moneyline
PASS.
There’s no reason to look at the moneyline here. The Nuggets are a goliath road favorite and far too expensive to take, while the Hornets without Ball likely won’t pull off an upset.
Against the spread
BET HORNETS +13.5 (-118).
The Hornets have performed well as massive underdogs this season. They are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as double-digit underdogs and have talented scorers like Bridges taking the court. Charlotte is 2-1-1 ATS in its last 4 at home.
The Nuggets are 1-2 ATS in their last 3 games as favorites of 9 or greater and have failed to cover 4 straight, going 4-5 ATS in their last 9. They have allowed at least 122 in 5 straight games, so their defense may not allow them to separate by a sizable margin.
Back HORNETS +13.5 (-118).
Over/Under
BET OVER 222.5 (-115).
The Nuggets have allowed at least 129 points in 3 of their last 4 games. Denver is 5-1 O/U in its last 6 and 30-17-1 O/U on the season.
The Hornets have scored at least 107 in 8 of their last 11 games, going 5-6 O/U. Charlotte has allowed at least 112 in 2 of its last 3. Considering those trends, take OVER 222.5 (-115).
