Charlotte Hornets at Los Angeles Lakers 3/29/19 – NBA Preview

The Hornets are playing in the very weak Southeast and that has allowed them to remain competitive in the playoff race. However, the Hornets are a game and a half back from the Magic who have been doing really well recently at winning the games they have been playing. The recent 4 wins the Hornets have picked up actually came against some of the stronger teams in the NBA and that could definitely make a difference in this game here as the Hornets have quite a bit of momentum.

So far this season the Hornets have been able to get a total of 110.9 point a game. The defense for the Hornets has allowed 111.7 points a game. When it comes to the passing attack the Hornets have been able to get 23.2 assist a game, but the Hornets have ended up getting a total of 44.4 boards a game.

The Lakers are one of those teams brought in a player that they thought would be a ringer to help get them into the playoffs. However, the Lakers have been officially eliminated from the playoffs and are not even looking good recently. The Lakers were completely dominated by the Jazz in their last game which saw the Lakers lose the game by a total of 15 points.

This season has seen the Lakers score only 111.7 points a game. The Lakers have been very poor defensively with a total of 113.8 points a game allowed. When it comes to the passing attack the Lakers have ended up getting a total of 25.3 assist a game, but the Lakers have ended up getting a total of 46.3 boards a game.

The Lakers are coming into this game at home, but the Lakers have struggled and are seen as a team that is unable to perform consistently on the season and without James the Lakers are a team that cannot do anything. Look for the Hornets to actually be able to take control of this game rather easily as they bring home a win as the Lakers are disjointed in how they are playing. Final Score, Charlotte Hornets win 111-103.
