Spread & Over/Under Predictions for Hornets vs. Spurs

Can the Hornets cover the spread?

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: Hornets -4.5

1 Star play on the Hornets (-4.5): Woof. Laying points with a team that's lost 17 of the last 18? Not a fan. But hey, if there's a spot you're going to lay the points with the Hornets, it's here. No Wemby and no Zach Collins = a thin frontcourt for the Spurs. Charlotte has been pounded in the paint all season long, so this will give them a break from having to overcome that. Plus, I'm sure the 36-point loss in San Antonio still doesn't sit well with this group.

Over/Under: 236.5

1 Star play on the under: I'm not overly confident in this pick, but I also don't know where the scoring is going to come from for San Antonio on the inside. Jeremy Sochan will need to step it up on the offensive end because if not, they'll be a one-dimensional team hoisting up threes like crazy. These are two of the league's worst defenses, so hold your nose if you're backing me with the under. In all honesty, this is a complete stay away game.

My picks this season

ATS: 12-15 (44%)

O/U: 14-13 (52%)

Overall: 26-28 (48%)
