Charlotte Hornets Fantasy Spin

Kemba Walker made 9-of-17 from the field for 22 points during a 118-107 win over the Grizzlies on Wednesday, adding two rebounds, seven assists, fur steals, one turnovers and three 3-pointers in 39 minutes. His fantasy owners needed him to come up big with just two games this week, so at least he came through here. His steals are the most since Dec. 9, his seven dimes match his best output in 2019, and shockingly it's just the first time he's been over 50% from the field in 2019. Maybe this will get him going after a rough month, but the best news is that he is likely staying put at the deadline.

Milwaukee Bucks Fantasy Spin

Giannis Antetokounmpo had a monster game vs. the Mavericks on Monday with 31 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, one triple and five turnovers. He was 10-of-20 from the field and 10-of-12 from the line, but didn't have any steals or blocks. Still, this is a ridiculous line and it's his seventh career game with at least 30 points, 15 rebounds and five assists. That's five more than every other Buck for the past 30 years. The Bucks still lead the NBA in wins and have won five straight games.

NBA Betting Trends

Charlotte

The Hornets are 1-6 against the spread in their last seven road games versus a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600.

Prediction

The Hornets are 6-2-1 against the spread in their last nine games in Milwaukee and are 4-0-1 against the number in their last five games versus the Bucks overall. Charlotte has also covered in four of its last five games overall and is 4-0 ATS in its last four games when its opponent allows 100 points or more in its previous game. On the other side, the Bucks are 4-11-1 at the betting window in their last 16 games playing on three or more days of rest and could suffer a letdown tonight against an inconsistent but competitive Hornets team.
