Charlotte Hornets vs. Sacramento Kings Pick and Prediction

Charlotte has come back to Earth after a hot start, and I'm going to continue to fade them.

The team hasn't been able to string together any sort of stops, allowing all but one opponent to score more than 110 points. The team has the fourth worst defensive rating, and while the Kings defense has the sixth worst, the edge lies with Sacramento's ability to limit turnovers.

Sacramento has the best turnover rate in the league and by protecting the rock will be able to beat the Hornets at their own bucket getting game. Both teams are top 10 in pace so expect a track meet, but I'm going to back the home team against the Hornets, who are in the middle of a four game west coast trip.

Pick: Kings -2 (-110)
