San Antonio

The Spurs have not been playing good basketball as of late. They have dropped nine of their last fifteen games and are on pace to have their worst season since 1996-97. Last game they fell to Washington 101-93 on 39.6% shooting, their third worst shooting night of the season.

Although San Antonio is still seven games over .500, they are having a bad season in Coach Popovich’s eye. They can attribute their disappointing season thus far to injuries. Up and coming superstar Kawhi Leonard has not played in over a month and many other players have missed significant time.

San Antonio is 5-5 in the last ten games and has not been able to play consistently well this season. Usually they are a very tough road team, but this season they have an average 10-10 record.

Tim Duncan has been just about the only consistent player for the Spurs this year and seems to be getting better with age. Duncan is averaging 15.3 points per game to go along with 10.3 rebounds.

The Spurs have taken 13 of the last 14 against the Hornets and beat them by 10 last game in San Antonio.

Duncan will look to have another big performance after posting 17 points and 16 boards in the last meeting against the Hornets.

Charlotte

The Hornets are led by young point guard sensation Kemba Walker. On the season, Walker is averaging 18.9 points per game to go along with 5.4 assists and 1.4 steals. During the last five games Walker has been on fire. He is averaging 30.2 points per game and shooting nearly 50% from the field. His performance earned him Eastern Conference player of the week.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist has stepped up his play as well. Throughout the last six games he is averaging a double-double, 11.3 points and 10.3 rebounds. These two have not been the only ones playing well throughout the five-game winning streak, Gerald Henderson posted a career-high 31 points in an impressive victory against Toronto, and Bismack Biyombo and P.J. Hairston have scored career high’s too.

Charlotte has a 9-5 record since losing Lance Stephenson on December 17. Stephenson is expected to return for Wednesday’s match-up against San Antonio. The Hornets have not been impressed by Stephenson’s play since signing with the team in the summer. He will most likely come off the bench against the Spurs and will look to turn his season around.

Before he injured his pelvis, Stephenson was averaging 10.2 points per game to go along with 6.8 rebounds.

NBA Handicapping Tips:

  • Spurs are 1-4 ATS in their last five Wednesday games.
  • Spurs are 0-3-1 ATS in their last four games after allowing 100 or more points in the previous game.
  • Hornets are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a S.U. win.
  • Hornets are 5-0 ATS in their last five games overall.
  • Hornets are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games after scoring 100 or more points in the previous game.

NBA Gambling Prediction

With the Hornets continuing to play great basketball and the Spurs playing the backend of back to back games, expect the Hornets to have a good chance to win this contest. Spurs have not been playing well and are not the same team without Kawhi Leonard. If the Spurs are not careful they could be stormed by the rolling Hornets. Expect Lance Stephenson to come off the bench and have a major impact on this game too, he is trying to show the Hornets and the Hornets fans that he can still play the game at a high level.

Free 4* NBA Betting Pick: CHA +???

At the very least Charlotte will keep this game extremely close, maybe even send the Spurs off with a loss.

San Antonio 102, Charlotte 98

Kemba Walker will have to contain Tony Parker and if he can do that expect the Hornets to have a good chance at winning this game.
