The Hornets made headlines this past weekend with their epic last-minute comeback to down the Kings. Unfortunately, Charlotte could not recreate the magic in their most recent outing against the Trail Blazers. Even so, the Hornets are firmly entrenched in the Eastern Conference race, having exceeded expectations throughout the first half of the season. The Timberwolves may have exceeded some expectations this year, but likely for the wrong reasons. The Wolves come into tonight’s NBA betting matchup having lost eight straight. Their 7-28 record on the season is the worst mark in the NBA.

Hornets vs. Timberwolves NBA Betting Prediction
It hasn’t been pretty for the Timberwolves over the entirety of the NBA season’s first half. The losing has been even uglier in recent days, however. Even a return to the friendly confines of the Target Center didn’t change things as Minnesota was blown out in a 19-point loss to the Suns on Sunday. Neither the return of star center Karl-Anthony Towns nor the coaching change to Chris Finch have been able to stop the losing.
With all that being said, perhaps the Timberwolves are worth a look to cover tonight as short home underdogs. This is, after all, the sixth game of a lengthy west coast road trip for the Hornets. Minnesota remains without D’Angelo Russell, but Charlotte is battling various injury issues of their own. Most notably, Devonte’ Graham and Cody Zeller will not play tonight, while Gordon Hayward is questionable. And all losing streaks have to end eventually, right?
