NBA Betting Trends
Charlotte
The over is 4-1 in the last five Hornets games overall. The over is 5-2 in the last seven Charlotte games versus the Central Division.
Milwaukee
The over is 23-8 in the last 31 Bucks games on Saturdays. The over is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.
Prediction:
The Bucks have scored at least 111 points in their last three games and have allowed at least 110 in two of the last three. With the Hornets offense hitting their stride while the defense is beatable in almost every game, I like this to be a shootout as tired legs will impact defense. Take the over in this spot.
