The current betting odds have the Hornets listed as a 4 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The 76ers haven't been having a great year this season as they sit at 8-8 on the season and now they are going to be missing some key players in this game. They have already been missing Harden in their last few games as he will be out for a while but now they are likely going to be missing Joel Embiid as well. This will also be a back-to-back for the 76ers where they have to travel after a home game against the Nets. The Hornets haven't been very good at all in their games this season with only 4 wins in their 18 games this season, but the Hornets will also be very hungry for a win here after their disappointing start to the season and they will be looking to pick on a weakened 76ers team that is dealing with injuries on the road in this bad spot for them. The Hornets will be coming for blood here since they have a chance to pick up a win on their home court and they have been keeping their games really close lately despite losing a few in a row now. The best way to place a bet here is on the Hornets to cover the spread in this game.
