Charlotte Hornets vs Detroit Pistons: Current situation
The Hornets currently sit in 11th place in the Eastern Conference which means they would miss the play-in tournament if the season were to end today. LaMelo Ball has been the bright spot for this ball club, averaging almost 30 points and 6.7 assists per game. Charlotte has been one of the healthiest teams this season, so the 5-9 record definitely isn’t something to brag about.
Detroit has also been healthier than most teams this season and after a sloppy start they’ve now improved to 7-9 overall and 4-4 in road games. Cade Cunningham has taken the next step in his development, he’s currently leading the team in scoring at 23.3 point and assists with 8.8 assists per game. However, players like Tobias Harris have disappointed after their big offseason moves, look for him to improve on his numbers as the season progresses.
Charlotte Hornets Stats & Form
The Hornets were the latest victim of the then undefeated Cavaliers who beat them 128-114. The loss was their 3rd in 4 games, interestingly all of those losses were on the road. It’s like this team has two versions – one that plays well at home and another that’s a complete disaster away from home. Without consistency it’s hard to win at a high level in the NBA, that’s something to think about for the Hornets as we get closer to December.
Detroit Pistons Stats & Form
Detroit has been one of the more reliable teams for betters lately. They’ve been able to cover the spread in 4 of their last 6 games overall, while on the road they are 5-2-1 ATS in 8 games played. If there is one thing this team has to improve in, it’s their performances vs teams from the Eastern Conference. In their last 18 such games they’ve come out on top 12 times, which is concerning as it’s hard to make up ground when you lose to teams that you’re battling with for a playoff spot.
Charlotte Hornets vs Detroit Pistons: Head-to-Head
This will be the 2nd meeting of the season between these two teams, they’ve met once in Charlotte already a couple of weeks ago. The Hornets came out on top 108-107 thanks to a Brandon Miller buzzer beater in the dying seconds. That was the Hornets’ 8th win in 11 meetings in Charlotte, but overall in head-to-head meetings the Pistons still hold a 6-4 lead over the last 10 games played.
Charlotte Hornets – Detroit Pistons Odds
Backing the Pistons will give you odds of 11/8. If you feel like the Hornets and LaMelo Ball can win here, odds of 5/6 are available.
The point total for Thursday’s game is set at just 216.5 points, with odds of 10/11 supporting either the over or the under.

Betting tip and prediction: Charlotte Hornets vs Detroit Pistons (21.11.2024)
Neither team has impressed so far this season, so there is really no clear cut favorite in this match-up. We would give a slight edge to the Hornets though, simply because of the way they’ve conducted themselves in home games this season. Despite getting almost 4 points less from LaMelo Ball in those games compared to when they play on the road, the Hornets have been able to win 4 more games at the Spectrum Center. It’s an unwritten rule in the NBA that role players play a lot better on the road than at home and the Hornets are a perfect example of that. Detroit just dropped a home game to the Chicago Bulls 122-112, that was not a good look for them. The defense has struggled to get stops, their last 3 of 5 opponents have put up 120+ points on them. Charlotte isn’t exactly the best offensive team in the NBA, but they too will be encouraged by those numbers. Detroit has allowed its last 3 opponents to shoot over 41% from three-point land, that’s music to the ears of Hornets players who have made threes at a 42% clip in their last 3 outings. That, combined with the Hornets’ dominance in home games against Detroit, should be enough to lift the home team here. We recommend taking Charlotte to cover.
