Advice and prediction
It’s hard to bet on the Nets too far ahead of time given the injury issues right now. Kevin Durant is out. James Harden left Wednesday’s game with a hamstring injury. A number of role players are questionable.
It would be worthwhile to grab the Hornets plus-3.5 as that line may change with Harden potentially being out. Outside of that, Hornets plus-135 feels like a good value bet for many of the same reasons.
Prediction: Nets 114, Hornets 110
