5 (-110) The Charlotte Hornets have quietly won seven of their last 10, and this team is starting to click. LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller, and Kon Knueppel are all producing offensively at a high level, but what's really turned things around is this Hornets defense. Charlotte is Top 6 in defensive net rating over the last 10 games, and they do one thing better than anyone right now, and that’s keeping teams off the free-throw line, which matters tonight as the Phoenix Suns love easy points at the stripe.
The Hornets have also defended the three well lately, ranking fourth in opponent 3-point shooting percentage over their last 10 games, another problem for a Suns team dependent on knocking down a ton of threes. Phoenix is also banged up and thin up front — a bad combo vs. a Charlotte team that’s second in the league in defensive rebounding .
