The Brooklyn Nets continue on the road and will visit the Charlotte Hornets at the Spectrum Center on Saturday night. These teams already faced each other twice earlier this season and the Nets have won both games.

In their last 10 games the Nets are 9-1, averaging 119.6 points, 39.0 rebounds, 26.6 assists, 6.4 steals and 7.4 blocks per game while shooting 52.2% from the field. Their opponents have averaged 113.7 points.

BETTING TRENDS

Brooklyn are 10-0 SU in their last 10 games.

Brooklyn are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games against Charlotte.

Brooklyn are 6-0 SU in their last 6 games on the road.

Brooklyn are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games when playing on the road against Charlotte.

Charlotte are 3-11 SU in their last 14 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 8 of Charlotte's last 12 games against Brooklyn.

Charlotte are 1-5 SU in their last 6 games at home.

 

Prediction

The Nets have been on fire lately as they're on a 10 game winning streak averaging 120.5 points per game on that strecht and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games when playing on the road against Charlotte. The Hornets have been awful this season and have won only 5 games at home so far. They already lost twice to the Nets and will be without Oubre Jr so I expect the Nets to dominate them again.
