The San Antonio Spurs hit the Hive and take on the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday night at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte.
The Spurs ended a two-game losing streak with a big 115-96 win over the short-handed Boston Celtics on Sunday night. LaMarcus Aldridge scored 48 points and pulled down 13 rebounds as San Antonio won for the 10th time in 12 games to solidify their hold of a playoff spot in the Western Conference.

The Hornet kept their slim playoff hopes alive with a stunning 115-114 upset over the Toronto Raptors on Sunday. Jeremy Lamb hit a buzzer-beating three pointer from half court to send Charlotte to its third straight win which put them at 2.5 games behind the Miami Heat in the race for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Charlotte carries the momentum of their buzzer-beating win over the Toronto Raptors but San Antonio is just playing so much better than them right now. The Spurs just snapped a two-game skid with a blowout of the Boston Celtics and they are 10-2 SU in their last dozen games played. I’m picking the San Antonio Spurs to beat the Charlotte Hornets on 3/26/19.

Odds from betonline.ag as of 3/26/19
The total has gone under in seven out of the last eight games of the Spurs when playing on one day rest, 6-1 in their last seven games after scoring at least 100 points in their previous game, 5-0 in their last five road games and 6-1 in their last seven games overall. The total has gone under in 18 out of the last 26 games of the Hornets against an opponent with a winning SU record. The under is also 8-3-1 in the last 12 head to head meetings in Charlotte. The Spurs have averaged 110.1 points in their last 10 games played while the Hornets have put up 107.3 points per game in their last 10 games as well. I don’t think this one’s topping 120.
