Charlotte Hornets: news and form

In a delicate position in the East, Charlotte must imperatively win tonight so as not to experience an extremely tense end to the season, while Washington faces the Clippers tonight. A success would also allow the Hornets to catch up with Brooklyn, 8th, and they will then count on the support of their public to hang the victory, Charlotte having a perfectly balanced record of 16 losses and 16 defeats at home this season. 3rd best offense in the league with an average of 114.4 points per game, James Borrego’s players are in great difficulty on their side of the field and are thus the 3rd worst defense in the NBA, conceding 114.8 points per game this season .

Hornets: players to follow

James Borrego should count on the usual trio to get the victory this night, while these 3 players have responded this season. Miles Bridges is thus the franchise’s leading scorer so far with 19.9 points, 7.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists, but he is closely followed by LaMelo Ball, also very efficient with 19.8 points, 6.9 rebounds and 7.3 assists, and by Terry Rozier, who compiled 19.5 points, 4.4 rebounds and 4.4 assists.

Boston Celtics: news and form

After a complicated start to the season, Boston seems to have found the key and experienced a meteoric rise in the standings. Currently 5th with 39 wins and 27 losses on the clock, the Celtics are hot on the heels of the Bulls, 4th with a head start, and have had 8 successes in their last 10 meetings, winning in particular once morest Memphis (120-107), Philadelphia (87-135) or even once morest Denver (108-102). Remaining on 3 consecutive victories, Boston will want to make the pass of 4 and perfect their record outside, the players of Ime Udoka having exactly the same record as the Hornets with 16 successes in 32 games. In offensive difficulty this season, Boston is only the 17th attack in the NBA with 109.6 points per game and will therefore try to build up confidence once morest a Charlotte team with multiple defensive largesse. The Celtics are however much more efficient on their side of the field and are thus the 3rd best defense in the NBA, conceding 104.1 points per game.

Celtics: players to watch

Jayson Tatum has been in great shape recently and should shine once more during this meeting, he who averages 31.6 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.7 assists in his last 10 games. The Boston winger is perfectly supported by Jaylen Brown, who compiles 23.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists this season in 33.7 minutes spent on average on the floor. Marcus Smart might also play an important role in this game, the point guard having a solid season in all areas with 11.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 1.7 steals per game.
