Detroit at Charlotte

April 10, 2026
img7:00 PM Eastern

The teams are meeting for the first time since a brawl broke out in Detroit's 110-104 win on Feb. 9. This game is too important for Charlotte to allow any antics, as it tries to improve its playoff position and possibly avoid the play-in tournament. Meanwhile, Detroit has locked up the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, and although Cade Cunningham is back after a collapsed lung, his playing time will likely be limited. The Hornets have won four of five, although they do come off a 113-102 loss at Boston on Tuesday. They have won 12 of 15 home games, and the Hornets have stepped it up defensively, allowing 104.8 points per game over their past 10. The teams have gone UNDER 11 of the past 12 meetings. Charlotte is on a current 7-3 UNDER run, and it is 49-31 UNDER in 2025-26. Take the Hornets on the moneyline and the UNDER.

Detroit at Charlotte

February 9, 2026
img7:00 PM Eastern

The Hornets have won nine straight games. No, that is not a misprint. Don't expect that win streak to continue, though. Not against Detroit, which has the best record in the Eastern Conference at 38-13. Charlotte is 25-28 and in 10th place in the East despite its hot hand. Detroit is 10-3 in its last 13 games and 21-6 at home on the season. Detroit has defeated Charlotte three consecutive times. The last being 112-86 at home on Dec. 20. The Pistons are the top defensive team in the NBA over the past 15 games. The Hornets have won five games against teams below .500 during their win streak. Charlotte will be shorthanded in the backcourt, as newly-acquired guards Malaki Branham and Coby White are not expected to play. White is expected to be out through the All-Star break because of a calf injury. Take the Pistons.
