Lately, Hornets Have Surpassed Win Totals
Dating back to 2010-11, the Hornets have gone over their win total six times (50%), including three of the last four seasons, starting with 2018-19. But when Charlotte’s win total is above 30, they hit the over just 37.5% of the time. Last season, Charlotte’s 27 wins snapped a string of eight consecutive seasons of 33 victories or better. In their first 20 games last season, the Hornets posted a 6-14 record. They were 3-3 after their first six games but were 3-11 thereafter.
Heading into the weekend, the Hornets are a whopping +25000 to win the Eastern Conference at BetMGM North Carolina. That is tied for worst with the Detroit Pistons and Washington Wizards. Health will be a priority as point guard LaMelo Ball, forward Gordon Hayward and shooting guards Terry Rozier and Cody Martin all missed time off last year due to injuries. Power forward Miles Bridges is also back, having missed the entire 2022-23 season after being charged with felony domestic violence. He begins this year’s campaign serving a 10-game suspension.
