Raptors vs Hornets Picks and Predictions: Backing Barnes' Second ... (Covers.com)

NBA odds, picks, and predictions for the Toronto Raptors at Charlotte Hornets on April 2. NBA betting best bet and free pick analysis.

The Raptors have won four of the past five meetings (4-1 ATS over those matchups) and they’re 4-0-1 ATS in their last five games on one day’s rest. The Under has hit in the Hornets’ last six games after a SU loss by 10 points or more. Much depends on how many of the Hornets listed as questionable on the injury report end up playing – but keep in mind that Gordon Hayward, Terry Rozier, Dennis Smith Jr., and Kelly Oubre Jr. 8 seed is to cash in here against a Hornets team sitting at 26-52 this season. 9 seed after seeing their three-game winning run snapped on Friday night in a 117-110 loss to the 76ers, and they’re also dealing with mounting speculation about Nick Nurse’s future in Toronto beyond this season. This is the first of two games for the Raptors in Charlotte before wrapping up the regular season against the Celtics and Bucks – so Toronto’s best hope of making inroads in the race for the No.

The Toronto Raptors settle in for a two-game set with the Charlotte Hornets.

He has, however, gone over it in back-to-back games and the matchup should certainly prop him up. That number spikes to 68.4% at home, where the wager has cashed in 26 of 38 outings. They’ve fallen short of this mark in seven consecutive games. This stretch includes a pair of victories over the Dallas Mavericks and wins over the Indian Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder. As one would imagine, covering this number isn’t something the Raps have done very often on the road this year. The Raptors are a brutal 12-25 away from Scotiabank Arena this season, losing five consecutive games. [ Anunoby over 2.5 assists (+150) ](https://online.northstarbets.ca/page?key=ej0xMzUzNDc2MiZsPTEzNTM0OTEwJnA9MTcxMjc%3D&utm_source=thestar&utm_medium=display&utm_campaign=NorthStarBetsawareness2023_NorthStarBets_&utm_content=custom/tracking_textlink): We’re asking Anunoby to do a little more than he’s accustomed to with this wager, but he should be up to the task. They’ve won by 22-plus points in just one road outing (at San Antonio, Nov. [ Under 232.5 points (-345) ](https://online.northstarbets.ca/page?key=ej0xMzUzNDc2MiZsPTEzNTM0OTEwJnA9MTcxMjc%3D&utm_source=thestar&utm_medium=display&utm_campaign=NorthStarBetsawareness2023_NorthStarBets_&utm_content=custom/tracking_textlink): Sunday’s game total is set at 222.5, so we’re teasing it up to be safe. The pregame narrative: Charlotte is keeping games close these days, making the team an attractive option on an alternate spread. Lastly, we’re expecting OG Anunoby to usurp his assist prop. [ Hornets +21.5 (-286) ](https://online.northstarbets.ca/page?key=ej0xMzUzNDc2MiZsPTEzNTM0OTEwJnA9MTcxMjc%3D&utm_source=thestar&utm_medium=display&utm_campaign=NorthStarBetsawareness2023_NorthStarBets_&utm_content=custom/tracking_textlink): Charlotte is actually playing some solid basketball lately and this line isn’t asking the squad to do too much.

There is nothing much to worry about regarding the injury of Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby, who left Sunday's game...

In any case, the Raptors need OG Anunoby to get as healthy as soon as possible, with the 2023 NBA Playoffs just around the corner. The Raptors will take a rest Monday before playing the Hornets again Tuesday, still in Charlotte. OG Anunoby played an integral role in the 128-108 blowout win over the hapless Hornets, as he scored 23 points on 9-for-13 shooting from the field to go along with seven rebounds and an assist.
