The Charlotte Hornets struggled at the end of the season and enter this playoff game having lost 5 in a row. As a team, the Hornets are putting up 109.5 points a game and they are shooting 45.5 percent from the field and 36.9 percent from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 111.4 points and their opponents are shooting 46.8 percent from the field and 36.6 percent from deep. The offense is led by Terry Rozier with 20.4 points and he dishes out 4.2 assists a game. LaMelo Bell adds 15.7 points and 5.9 rebounds a game.
The Indiana Pacers weren't much better down the stretch and there was some infighting between players and coaches. As a team, the Pacers are putting up 115.3 points a game and they are shooting 47.4 percent from the field and 36.4 percent from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 115.3 points and their opponents are shooting 46.8 percent from the field and 36.6 percent from deep. The offense is led by Malcolm Brogdon with 21.2 points and 5.3 rebounds a game but will be a game-time decision. Caris LeVert adds 20.7 points and he dishes out 4.9 assists.

The under is 26-11 in Hornets last 37 overall. The over is 10-3 in Pacers last 13 overall. The under is 3-0-1 in the last 4 meetings between the two teams. Indiana is banged up on this one and the Hornets are a young team playing in a winner take all game. I can see this one being played like a game seven and this number is a little high.

Play on the UNDER.
