Charlotte Hornets vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
I like the Raptors more in the underdog role, but the Hornets are a tough sell, as they’ve lost 8 of their last 10 games and have covered just 3 of those games. The Raptors are 7-3 SU and ATS in their last 10 games, and they’ve covered 10 of their last 13 games as a favorite. Also, the Raptors have won 8 of the last 10 games against the Hornets, and they’ve covered 7 of those games. I have little use for the Hornets right now. Give me the Raptors in a comfortable home win.
