Charlotte Hornets Analysis
The Charlotte Hornets had an impressive overtime win over the Boston Celtics earlier this week. Led by LaMelo Ball's 36 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists, SF Miles Bridges' three-pointer with 6.6 seconds left sealed the win. Gordon Hayward added 20 points and the Hornets made 16 of their 17 foul shots. Charlotte averages 113.7 points per game (13th) and shoots 47.0 percent from the field (16th). Defensively, their opponents score 122.2 points (27th) and shoot 49.1 percent from the field (27th), including 38.9 percent from deep (28th). The Hornets rank 23rd in schedule-adjusted offensive efficiency, 25th in adjusted defensive efficiency, and 9th in pace. This power ranking gives Charlotte the advantage over Boston.
Hornets and Wizards Take to the Court for Third Matchup of the Month: Can Charlotte Produce Another Cover?
The previous two matchups between Washington and Charlotte have seen the underdog cover, with Washington covering in the first and Charlotte in the second. Following their victory over Boston in a taxing overtime affair, I'm not convinced the Hornets will be able to produce another cover against Washington, whom they have already met twice this month. While Charlotte's offense should provide a challenge for the 30th-ranked Washington defense, their own defense is ranked 25th in efficiency. On the other hand, Washington's high-scoring offense, spearheaded by a 67.2% rim FG% (second highest in the league) makes them well-equipped to remain competitive this Wednesday.
