76ers at Hornets picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 106, Hornets 105

Moneyline

PASS.

While Charlotte (+110) may be enticing, 3 of its last 12 games have ended within 2 points, so the spread is the preferred route here.

Against the spread

BET HORNETS +2.5 (-115).

The Hornets haven’t rewarded bettors frequently as of late, but they have performed well all season long at home. They are 8-6 ATS at Spectrum Center, while the 76ers are 5-6 ATS on the road. Charlotte is 3-2 ATS in its last 5 at home.

The 76ers have covered well as of late, but they haven’t performed well as favorites. Philadelphia is 4-6 ATS as a favorite this season. Considering those trends, back HORNETS +2.5 (-115).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 213.5 (-115).

The 76ers have scored 108 or fewer points in 4 straight games and are 1-4-1 O/U in their last 6. To add to that, Philadelphia has allowed 106 or fewer points in 5 of its last 6 games.

The Hornets have gone Under in 2 straight games and 6 of their last 9. Charlotte has scored 104 or fewer points in 8 of its last 9 games. Play UNDER 213.5 (-115).

76ers at Hornets picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 105, Hornets 102

Moneyline

PASS.

There is no value on Philadelphia (-190) to beat an ailing Charlotte team Tuesday.

Against the spread

LEAN HORNETS +4.5 (-110).

While Charlotte has struggled recently, going 2-8 in its last 10 games, it has covered the spread in 6 of its last 7 overall and 5 of its last 6 at home. It faces a Philly team that has struggled to meet expectations this season and will once again be without Embiid.

The Sixers have failed to cover the spread in 7 of their last 10 games.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 211.5 (-110).

Both the Hornets and Sixers are without some of their top scorers in Ball and Embiid. The Hornets have scored 104 or fewer points in 4 straight games and allowed 99 or fewer in 3 of their last 4.

The 76ers have allowed 98 or fewer points in 2 of their last 4 games.

76ers at Hornets picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 118, Hornets 109

Moneyline

AVOID.

The 76ers (-475) are the far better team here, but risking nearly 5 times your potential return on a road favorite in the NBA is never a wise play.

Against the spread

LEAN HORNETS +10.5 (-115).

It is not easy to cover this size of a spread on the road. Philadelphia is also just 5-5 ATS over its last 10 games.

The Hornets are 3-2 ATS over their last 5 games and are 2-0 ATS in their last 2 games as a double-digit underdog. Despite the absence of Ball, they still have capable scorers like G Terry Rozier, who is averaging 21.5 points per game.

Charlotte has only lost 1 of its last 3 home games by double digits and it should be able to keep this somewhat close. Back HORNETS +10.5 (-115) for a partial-unit play.

Over/Under

BET OVER 225.5 (-115).

The Hornets have cashed the Over in 3 straight games, mainly because of their defense, which has allowed at least 114 points in each battle. Against an efficient (albeit slow) offense in Philadelphia, that could spell trouble.

The 76ers rank 8th in field-goal percentage (48.5%) and 1st in 3-point field-goal percentage (39%). They have gone Over in 5 of their last 7 and should be able to get going offensively against a poor defense.

Back the OVER 226.5 (-115).

Philadelphia 76ers at Charlotte Hornets odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Philadelphia 76ers at Charlotte Hornets odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Philadelphia 76ers (12-11) travel to Spectrum Center Monday to take on the Charlotte Hornets (14-11). Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the 76ers at Hornets odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

The 76ers are coming off a 2-point road win as 2.5-point underdogs at the Atlanta Hawks Friday. That was two nights after covering as 3-point road underdogs at the Boston Celtics in an 88-87 loss.

Philadelphia is 4-6 in its last 10 and is 11-11-1 against the spread this season. Charlotte, who will be down two key guards, is coming off a surprising 3-point win over Atlanta Sunday as a 7.5-point underdog.

Charlotte has been one of the better teams against the spread this season, sitting at 14-11. The Hornets will be led by SF Miles Bridges, who is coming off a 32-point game against the Hawks.

This will be the first of two straight games between the two teams in Charlotte. The second is Wednesday.

76ers at Hornets odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 109, Hornets 106

Money line

PASS with a slight lean to the Hornets at +250.

That seems like good value for a team coming off a win over a team in last season’s Eastern Conference Finals. Down two stars, I’d prefer taking the points here though.

At -320, Philadelphia is unplayable here.

Against the spread

BET HORNETS +6.5 (-102).

Charlotte has been electric at home, posting a 7-2 record. Charlotte is 5-1 this season as a home underdog and very well could’ve been the favorite at full strength.

Given the explosion of Bridges this season and the playmaking of SG Kelly Oubre Jr., the Hornets still have talent on the offensive end. The Hornets rank 6th in fast-break points, which could bode well as C Joel Embiid may still be struggling with his conditioning.

Charlotte is in the top 10 in points in the paint which could force Philadelphia into foul trouble. The Sixers rank in the bottom three in opponents’ fast-break points.

While I still feel the Hornets’ experience and shooting should eke out a win, they certainly have a good shot at covering such a large spread.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 216.5 (-107) as the Sixers just don’t move at a quick base.

Embiid missed time with COVID-19. He’s been slow getting up and down the court. The Sixers, one of the lowest teams in pace, want to play a half-court game.

The Hornets have the athleticism to run and abuse the Sixers in transition. Philadelphia won’t let that happen and should still look toward Embiid for pace offensively.

Both opponents in the Sixers’ last two games scored less than 100 points. Their pace is just that slow with Embiid on the court despite the Hornets’ aggressive offensive play.
