Spread & Over/Under Predictions for Hornets vs Bucks
In this story:
Each game day, we at All Hornets will release an article on our thoughts on the spread and the over/under of Charlotte Hornets games. The star ratings next to the play describe the overall confidence in that particular play.
Star ratings:
1 Star - Not very confident
2 Star - A little confident
3 Star - Fairly confident
4 Star - Very confident
5 Star - Should be a lock to happen
Spread: Bucks -1.5
4 Star play on the Hornets: Milwaukee is rolling with their second group tonight as Giannis, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday, and Brook Lopez are all expected to rest for this game. Charlotte may have fell apart in the fourth quarter of last night's game but they were firing on all cylinders for the first three quarters. Charlotte continues to play well and steals a game from a shorthanded Bucks team.
Over/Under: 220.5
3 Star play on the under: Contrasting trends for the total. Five of Milwaukee's last six games have gone over, while 11 of the Charlotte's last 14 home games have stayed under. The Hornets put up 74 points in the first half of Friday's game, but a 10-point fourth quarter brought them back down to earth. Given that both teams are on the back end of a back-to-back and the Bucks are resting their stars, I like this one to stay under. Side note, I liked the under before Milwaukee decided to rest guys.
My picks for the season
ATS: 5-4 (55%)
O/U: 7-2 (77%)
Overall: 12-7 (63%)
