At 16-36, the playoff window for the Hornets has virtually closed. Saturday’s 116-100 loss to the Dallas Mavericks added another chapter of misery to Charlotte, who suffered their 17th home loss of the season. Devonte’ Graham posted gaudy numbers with 26 points and 10 assists, Miles Bridges scored 20 and Malik Monk added 19 markers off the bench. The Hornets allowed the Mavs to shoot 50 percent from the field, including 17 of 35 from the three-point range.

Life without Andrew Drummond has been tough for the Pistons, who dropped their second consecutive game since trading the former All-Star center to the Cavaliers on Thursday. Detroit badly missed Drummond’s rebounding in a 95-92 loss to the lowly New York Knicks as they got badly outrebounded, 47-28, on their home floor.

The Hornets are surprisingly 3-0 in their first three head-to-head meetings with the Pistons this season. Still, Online Bookmakers still gave the Pistons a slim edge in spread and Moneyline betting since they had been the more competitive team between two. The Hornets dropped all their five games by more than 10 points, while the Pistons lost their last two by a single digit.

Moneyline: Bet on the Hornets at +125. Again, Charlotte is a staggering 9-1 against the Pistons in their last 10 games and 3-0 in their last three. They also have a much healthier roster.

ATS: Pick the Hornets to cover the 2.5-point spread. Charlotte has been a miserable ATS team in their last six games, but Monday’s ball game against the Pistons presents a real opportunity to end the streak.

TOTALs: Bet on the UNDER at 208.5 points. All the totals scores in three games between the two teams this season ranged between 200 to 215 points. I doubt that the trend would change with both clubs severely handicapped on the offensive end.

Score Prediction: 110 – 106 Hornets
