NBA Betting Preview: Hornets vs Knicks

The Charlotte Hornets meet the New York Knicks on the final day of the NBA regular season. Our betting preview features expert predictions, betting tips, the latest odds, H2H stats, player stats, team news and confirmed starting lineups.

The Knicks have been given a big number on the spread. We recommend taking the -110 that they cover the +11.5 against the Hornets.

The Charlotte Hornets head into the regular-season finale sitting ninth and looking to secure home-court advantage in the 9 vs. 10 Play-In game, while the New York Knicks are locked in as the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference.

A win would guarantee the Hornets the No. 9 spot, while a loss combined with a Miami win would see them drop to No. 10.

The Hornets have lost in back-to-back outings. In a recent home game at Spectrum Center, they were turned over 118-100 by Detroit Pistons. LaMelo Ball poured in 27 points, with Brandon Miller contributing 22 and Coby White adding 11.

The Knicks last game was a 112-95 victory over Toronto Raptors at Madison Square Garden. That means it’s now been seven straight home wins. Jalen Brunson recorded 29 points, Karl-Anthony Towns racked up 22 points and 10 rebounds, while Mikal Bridges had 13 points.
