Game Preview

 
When the Indiana Pacers and Charlotte Hornets meet on Monday night, both will be looking to rebound from losses to the Philadelphia 76ers. Charlotte was defeated by the 76ers by 39 points last Friday, and the Hornets were defeated by Philadelphia by 20 points on Saturday. Both the Pacers and the Hornets are out of the Eastern Conference play-in tournament picture.
 
Tyrese Haliburton, the Pacers’ star ball handler, will be out again for this game. Benedict Mathurin, their prized rookie, is still classified as ‘questionable,’ as is Chris Duarte. When they’re healthy, they’re a completely different and much more dangerous team, but they’ve been able to hold their own against teams with weakened rosters.
 
They defeated the Milwaukee Bucks only two games ago thanks to a complete scoring effort from their starters. They should be able to handle the Hornets tonight if they can replicate their balanced performance.
 
Let’s check the latest picks, NBA news, stats and NBA expert picks for Pacers vs Hornets . We’ve plenty of NBA predictions for you to consider.
 
After losing LaMelo Ball to injury, the Hornets are looking for a new identity for their offense with the franchise’s face undergoing ankle surgery. They’ll also be missing Theo Maledon and Mark Williams for this one, so the starters will be needed to provide a boost if they’re missing key bench players.
 
They shot a terrible percentage in their last game, which they lost to the 76ers, and Terry Rozier had a team-high 14 points. The Hornets will have to mix up their offense and find some easy buckets against another good defensive team in the Pacers.
 
This year, PJ Washington has been excellent with his three-point shot, so they should try to spread the floor with him and get him out wide on the perimeter. If the Hornets can hit their open three-pointers, they’ll get a huge boost from this crowd in their efforts to keep this game close.
