Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics Prediction: Injury Report, Starting 5s, Betting Odds & Spreads - November 28 | 2022-23 NBA Season

The Charlotte Hornets will take on the Boston Celtics at the TD Garden on Monday (November 28) in the NBA regular season action.

The two Eastern Conference teams have had contrasting fortunes this season. The Hornets are languishing near the bottom of the standings, while the Celtics have solidified their position as the best team in the league. The betting odds and predictions for the game are given below:

The Celtics are in sensational form. They have won 11 of their last 12 games to improve to 16-4 record atop the East. They're coming off a 130-121 win over the Washington Wizards.

In superstar Jayson Tatum's absence, an outstanding performance from Jaylen Brown won them the game. He scored 36 points in 34 minutes and went 13-23 from the field and 8-8 from the line. It was Brown's seventh 30+ point outing this season, and he averages 26-6-3 per game on 60% true shooting.

The Hornets, meanwhile, have been pretty poor this season. They started off pretty well but have slumped since then. With a 6-14 record, the absence of LaMelo Ball through injury has affected them massively.

They have the worst offensive rating in the NBA this season. Charlotte's leading scorer, Terry Rozier, has only managed 20.5 ppg. The Hornets rank in the bottom three for FG% and 3P%.

Charlotte Hornets vs Boston Celtics Betting Prediction

The Celtics should cruise to a win. Very few teams in the league come even close to competing with the Celtics, and the Hornets are not one of them.

They have struggled massively, and without Ball, their offense is expected to take a massive dip. The Celtics have been sublime at home, winning nine of their ten home games, and should take this one.

Celtics: -10.5 (-110)
