Result:
WIN

Charlotte eked out a 113-112 win on Oct. 20 in the first meeting this season and that was on the road. Now the Hornets get the Heat at home with Miami playing a back-to-back after Monday's 123-113 loss to Sacramento. The Kings held a 68-38 scoring edge in the paint, which should be a big concern for the Heat. Josh Richardson scored 31 points for Miami and Hassan Whiteside pulled down 24 rebounds, but it wasn't enough against the Kings, who were a nine-point underdog. Charlotte lost a tough one 105-103 at Philadelphia on Saturday when the 76ers hit some clutch three-pointers down the stretch, but the Hornets destroyed Chicago 135-106 the night before. Kemba Walker exploded for 39 points in the first meeting and the Hornets won despite shooting only 44.1 percent from the field. The Heat will have its hands full again containing Walker and Miami is shooting only 43.0 percent as a team. Play the Hornets on the moneyline.
