Detroit at Charlotte

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.
