Kings at Hornets: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Hornets 124, Kings 118
Money line (ML)
The HORNETS (-165) are worth a look on the money line on their home floor, as they enter on a three-game win streak overall. Charlotte has also won three in a row on its home floor, and they topped the Kings (+140) in Sacramento Feb. 28 by a 127-126 score, cashing outright as 3.5-point underdogs.

Against the spread (ATS)
The HORNETS -3.5 (-110) are worth a look in Monday’s game even though they have alternated covers and non-covers in the past 12 games. They covered against Toronto Saturday, and they haven’t covered consecutive games since Feb. 7-8 at home. Still, the Kings were drummed 121-106 in Atlanta on Saturday, and they are a dismal 3-12 ATS across the past 15.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 238.5 (-110) is worth a light play. That’s a very, very high number, but the Kings have rattled off Overs in 11 of the past 14 games overall, including the first meeting Feb. 28. The Over is also 9-3 across the past 12 for the Hornets.
