Advice and prediction
There is no question the Hornets are down and out right now, both physically and mentally. Sunday will be their fourth game on a five-game road trip, and Charlotte has lost a key player in each of the last two contests.
Even for this Hornets team, it’s a steep mountain to climb to replace Hayward’s scoring given the current situation. For now, take Boston minus-9 until Charlotte can attempt to figure out a solution.
Prediction: Celtics 112, Hornets 101
