Want to know something about the Hornets? They are outstanding when it comes to covering road games going 18-7-1 (72 percent) in their past 26 away contests. That includes a 3-1 ATS mark this season in road games with two of those covers coming in blowout wins against the Spurs and Hawks.

The Bulls return to Chicago off a highly-satisfying, 108-99, road win against the Nets. Zach LaVine played more than 37 minutes in that game. I expect the Bulls to rest him in this back-to-back spot.

Chicago is 2-8 ATS in its last 10 home games. The Bulls also are 1-6 ATS the past seven times when playing on zero rest.

Charlotte followed up a huge home upset win against the Warriors with a flat home loss to the Kings two days ago. The Hornets should have their heads back right for this matchup.
