Charlotte Hornets:

James Borrego’s team surprised. Charlotte started the new regular season with a bang, winning all three games. In their first games, the Hornets took on Indiana (123-122) and Cleveland (123-112). In the last meeting, they even managed to get a win over Brooklyn (111-95).

Miles Bridges remains Charlotte’s best player so far. He’s the one who buried the Nets. The 23-year-old had 32 points, nine rebounds and two assists in his last game. It should be noted that he was effective in all three games for the Hornets.

Boston Celtics:

Before the season began, Boston was considered one of the top playoff contenders. So far, however, the Celtics have been surprisingly disappointing. The change in their head coach didn’t do the team any favors. Under Udoka, the Celtics have been struggling so far. In fact, in their first two games they lost to the Knicks (134-138) and Toronto (83-115).

Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics Bucks Tips:

The Charlotte Hornets are playing a really good game. James Borrego’s team easily defeats their opponents. The Celtics are unlikely to be able to stop them.

Our prediction is Hornets’ win with the odds of 1.94 with the VBet bookmaker.

Boston has been unimpressive in terms of scoring. The Celtics have not scored more than 107 points in their last two games. That could be due to the absence of Jalen Brown. The player should be back on the floor in this meeting, but we can’t expect him to produce much after his injury.

Our second prediction is the Boston Celtics individual total points under 114.5.

Lamelo Ball, last season’s best rookie, has become the Hornets’ true leader. He has a lot of help from his starting five, though. Kelly Oubre Jr. also came off the bench in the game against Cleveland and scored 25 points on 9 of 13 shooting. By all accounts, we should bet on an assists win, as the Celtics have relied more on Tatum and Brown’s individual qualities under the new coach.

Our third prediction is that Bulls players will have more assists.
