The first half of the NBA regular season is almost over, and in these almost three months of activity we have been able to identify the teams that actually have what it takes to fight their way to the last round, as well as those that are anxiously anticipating the season’s end after a poor showing.
The Hornets vs Bucks, both teams in the Eastern Conference, are very different from one another. Milwaukee is among the top teams of the entire season, while Charlotte has remained the worst squad.

Betting on the Charlotte Hornets
- Regular season record: 10-29
The Charlotte Hornets lost to the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday, suffering their third straight defeat as they continue to struggle to turn things around. With 10 wins and 29 defeats in 39 games, they are still the weakest team in the Eastern Conference.
This Friday they will play their 40th game of the season, but regardless of the result there will be no changes in the Southeast Division, as they are the team with the least amount of wins and the most losses in the zone. As if that wasn’t enough, they just got some bad news: Kelly Oubre Jr. will continue to be out for at least another month as he will have to undergo surgery.
Betting on the Milwaukee Bucks
- Regular season record: 25-13
After starting the year with a 118-95 loss to the Washington Wizards, the Milwaukee Bucks managed to bounce back and are now on a two-game winning streak. In their most recent performance, they tied the Toronto Raptors 97-97 and took the game to overtime to win 104-101.
Giannis Antetokounmpo, as usual, was the hero of the game, finishing with 30 points, 10 assists, and 21 rebounds for his second triple-double of the year. The Bucks’ successful season can be chalked up to him: they presently sit in third place in the Eastern Conference with a 25-13 record and are in first place in the Central Division as the club with the fewest losses.
JefeBet Prediction
The Bucks won against the Hornets on December 2 by a score of 105-96, which so far is the only matchup they have played against each other this season. It’s possible that something similar will happen in this matchup, since the performance of both teams is still the same as it was at that moment, with the Milwaukee team being superior.
Prediction: Milwaukee Bucks win by 7 points.
