- LaMelo Ball (CHA): 20.4 PPG, high 37; exploits DAL assists allowed #4 to Gs (2.96/gm).
- Miles Bridges (CHA): 13.7 PPG; CHA's edge vs DAL steals/rebounds.
- Max Christie (DAL): 13.5 PPG only healthy option, but limited.
Best Bets
- Charlotte Hornets -12.5: Dallas missing Flagg (27.3 PPG), Irving, Marshall—expect 15+ point blowout.
- Under 231.5: Both at 0 PPG L10, heavy DAL injuries cap scoring.
- Hornets ML -630: Safe play with 80%+ implied odds, backed by form edges.
Prediction
Charlotte Hornets roll 119-101, covering -12.5 and pushing under 231.5. Miller and Ball feast on depleted Dallas.
