Recent history between the Hornets and Wizards

Charlotte was swept in the four-game series last year by Washington and also lost the final matchup of the 2023-24 season. The Hornets' last win over the Wizards came in November of 2023, when LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges combined to score 67 points. Historically speaking, though, the Hornets do hold a slight 71-65 edge.

Odds via FanDuel Sportsbook

The Hornets are currently 2.5-point underdogs, and you have to wonder how much of the line is influenced by the uncertainty surrounding Brandon Miller, who exited last night's game in Philadelphia with a shoulder injury. Considering how early it is in the season, it wouldn't surprise anyone if the Hornets held him out of this contest just out of precaution. A couple of nights ago, the Wizards stunned the Dallas Mavericks, thanks to a huge performance from Kyshawn George, who scored 34 points, hitting 7/9 shots from beyond three-point range. The over/under for this one is sitting at 238.5, so the sportsbooks are expecting a great deal of offense.
