Team	SP/RL	TOTAL	ML
Charlotte Hornets	+5 (-115)	224.5 o (-111)	+195
Miami Heat	-5 (-115)	224.5 u (-111)	-238

The Charlotte Hornets are now tied with the Brooklyn Nets with their records at 40-38. These teams are placed 9th and 10th in the NBA Eastern Conference and battling for home-court advantage for at least their initial game of the play-in tournament. LaMelo Ball has elevated himself this season and all eyes are on him on how he delivers this team at the home stretch. Michael Jordan has his best team as the franchise owner but the entire conference stepped it up as well. The key for another win for the Hornets is how Ball will be deciding inside the basketball court and get his teammates in their best spots.

The Miami Heat after a top conference log jam managed to emerge as the best team winning their last four matches. Their record now stands at 51-28 and are at least two games behind the chasing Boston Celtics, Philadelphia 76ers and the defending champions, Milwaukee Bucks. Another win will mean that they are closer to securing the top spot in the East playoffs and will look to capitalize on weaker opponents. Jimmy Butler has been the team’s most vocal leader and has contributed across the board. Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro have been his best main source of help in securing wins.
