Key Stats
Charlotte Hornets
With LaMelo Ball out for the season, Miles Bridges has taken over as the leading scorer with 21.4 points per game. However, he is listed as a game-time decision right now. Brandon Miller, their second in scoring, is also a game-time decision. If both sit for tonight’s game, the bench will need to be the primary provider of points.
Portland Trail Blazers
The lead scorer for the Portland Trail Blazers is Anfernee Simons, with 22.6 points per game. He is listed as out for tonight’s game. Jerami Grant, their second scoring, is a game-time decision. With Simons sidelined and Grant questionable, one could potentially see a solid game from Dalano Banton.

Game Prediction
The Charlotte Hornets beat out the Trail Blazers the last time these teams met. That was with both teams having a generally healthy roster. Now, they are both facing more injuries. This game will come down to whether the game time decision players end up stepping on the court. Either way, the Charlotte Hornets have a strong chance of beating Portland again.

Charlotte Hornets -1.5 (-110)
