Free Charlotte Hornets vs. Toronto Raptors NBA Prediction:
Friday, February 28th the Eastern Conference foes the Charlotte Hornets and Toronto Raptors meet for the third time this season. The Raptors won both previous games on November 18th (132-96) and January 8th (112-110 in overtime).
Last season, Charlotte won two of the three games between the clubs. The Pacers hold the all-time record having bested the Raptors in 44 of their 82 matches
Charlotte Hornets
Charlotte will be without Malik Monk for the foreseeable future as the youngster became another of this season’s anti-drug violaters.
His recent performance uptick may have led to the testing since he was averaging 10.3 points but vaulted to 18.2 points in his last seven games.

The Hornets are playing better of late winning four of their last six matches. Albeit, those victories came via sub .500 teams like the Pistons, Bulls, Wolves, and the most recent win versus the Knicks.
The two losses came versus the Nets and Pacers so coming into Toronto this will be a real challenge.
In the win versus the Knicks, Terry Rozier was the leading scorer registering 26 points.
Devonte’ Graham (21), Bismack Biymobo (12), PJ Washington (12), and Miles Bridges all registered double-figure scoring.
On the season, the team leaders are Devonte’ Graham for scoring (17.6) and assists (7.7), Cody Zeller for rebounding (7.1) and field goal percentage (51.7%), Terry Rozier for steals (1.0) and PJ Washington for blocks (0.8).
Monk is the only player who’ll be out.
Toronto Raptors
Although the Raptors jumped on the Bucks early to take a double-digit lead, Milwaukee went on a late second quarter run to cut the deficit to two points and won the third (the only quarter they won) to go up 2-0 in the season series.
Kyle Lowry (14), Pascal Siakam (22) and Fred VanVleet (10) all had sub-par games via poor shooting nights something that hasn’t happened previously this season.
Nick Nurse who is known as one of the best adapting coaches may also have been holding back in the match versus the Bucks. Ultimately the Raptors got a good idea of just how dominant the Bucks are.
The loss offered solid takeaways for him such as the Raptors bench being potentially deeper than the Bucks as they outscored Milwaukee’s reserves 35-28.
Factor in the absence of Marc Gasol and Norman Powell who offer size and both shoot over 40 percent from the perimeter.
On the season the team leaders are Siakam for points (23.7) and blocks (0.9), Lowry for assists (7.7), VanVleet for steals(1.9) and Serge Ibaka for rebounds (8.0), and field goal percentage (51.8%).
Patrick McCaw (flu) missed the last three games and is questionable for Friday. Marc Gasol (hamstring) and Norman Powell (fractured finger) are out indefinitely.

Free Charlotte Hornets vs. Toronto Raptors NBA Prediction:
Games between these teams are historically competitive and while the spread feels a bit rich the Raptors tend to bounce back with big games following losses.
This game marks the end of the longest home stand (four games) prior to the Raptors embarking on a five-game Western road trip.
