LaMelo Ball seeks to snap the Hornets’ current five-game slide against the Thunder, who ride a seven-game winning streak thanks to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s consistency. Despite Charlotte’s injury concerns with a sidelined starting center, Oklahoma City boasts a healthy roster that has historically dominated Eastern Conference teams with sharp perimeter shooting. Given the Hornets’ willingness to trade buckets on their home floor, the over looks strong at 227, earning an A rating for its high probability of success and lucrative payout.
LaMelo Ball, still active on the Charlotte roster, has been shouldering the offensive load for a Hornets squad recently mired in a five-game losing skid. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City’s 57-12 record reflects their ongoing surge, propelled by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s scoring barrages, but they remain cautious amid lingering injury concerns for key rotational pieces on the bench. Historically, Charlotte has covered the spread against top Western Conference teams seven of the last ten times they’ve caught a significant points cushion, suggesting they’re more resilient than their record implies. Banking on the Hornets at +19.5 snags a B rating for reliability and offers decent monetary upside at -110 odds—enough to keep underdog bettors intrigued.
