Wednesday at 7 p.m. ET marks the clash between the Toronto Raptors (17-33) and the Charlotte Hornets (10-39) as part of Toronto's current road trip. In their recent games, Toronto experienced a 138-100 defeat against the New Orleans Pelicans, while Charlotte fell to the Lakers with a score of 124-118 on the same day. Both teams are navigating lineup changes and grappling with injuries. The Hornets are contending with an eight-game losing streak, while the Raptors have lost three games in a row.
Charlotte's offense is averaging just 108.5 PPG, ranking 28th in the league, with shooting percentages of 45.8% from the field and 36.1% from three-point range. Their offensive rating is at 109.9, also placing them 28th. Meanwhile, the Raptors are averaging 114.3 PPG (20th), shooting 47.9% from the field and 35.8% from beyond the arc, with an offensive rating of 114.7 (19th).
It's difficult to envision a high-scoring affair given the presence of two middling offenses. The initial total of 226.5 has since decreased to 226 earlier today. According to SportsInsights, over 89% of the bets and 90% of the money favor the Over. However, based on my analysis, I project this game to fall within the 220-223 point range.
Pick: Under 226 (-110)
🍀Best of luck!
