Time: 7 p.m. ET
Reasoning: The Hornets are a good team and they should get Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (ribs) back on Friday. I also expect new addition Lance Stephenson to start scoring (so far he's averaged just 6.6 ppg on 26.7% shooting). At home Charlotte is allowing opponents just 88.7 ppg. The Hornets also take care of the ball (just 12.8 turnovers per game) and they out-rebound opponents (+3.4 differential). Atlanta is getting out-rebounded by, get this, nearly nine per game. The Hawks also are horrendous from the charity stripe (68.9%). And against San Antonio on Wednesday they scored just 14 points on 21 turnovers by the Spurs.
Record: 204-156-8 (56.7%)
Bankroll: +99.04%
