Free Charlotte Hornets vs. Washington Wizards NBA Prediction:
The Wizards have been favored eight times this season and have won five of those contests. The Hornets, on the other hand, have been underdogs in 12 contests winning just twice.
I’d expect Washington’s stretch of good luck and strong play to continue against a team in Charlotte that, with all due respect, is banking on career performances from guys like Nick Richards.
Wizards get this one at home straight up, and my money’s on them against the spread as well.
Washington wins convincingly.
