LiontipsCharlotte - Phoenix. Betting Tip and bets for the NBA match
Command Analysis
Current form
The Hornets continue to disappoint their fans. The team is in the penultimate place in the Eastern Conference, and their play leaves much to be desired. In the last match, Charlotte lost to the conference leader - Cleveland (105:115). LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller tried to take the initiative into their own hands, scoring 48 points between them, but it was not enough.
The team's key problem is the lack of team play and weak attack efficiency. Injured players are gradually returning to the ranks, but it will take a lot of time to regain their form.
The upcoming match with Phoenix could be another test for Charlotte. Charles Lee's team understands that a victory can breathe new life into the team, but it will be extremely difficult to achieve.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tre Mann and Grant Williams will not play in the next game due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
The Hornets have gone 10 games without a win.
Probable lineup: Bridges - Green, Williams - Miller, Ball.
Current form
The Suns have lost ground in the West, but they are still hoping to get back into the fight for a playoff spot. After four straight losses, the team managed to win over Philadelphia (109:99), which was a breath of fresh air for the players and coaching staff.
Bradley Beal and Kevin Durant had a great game, while Devin Booker surprised with a weak performance, scoring only 10 points. Despite this, Phoenix is showing progress, and the upcoming game with Charlotte is a good chance to extend the successful series.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team will take to the court without Royce O'Neale.
Interesting facts for betting
The last seven head-to-head games have ended in favor of the Suns.
Probable lineup: Dunn - Durant, Plumlee - Jones, Booker.

1.84Tip and bets
Charlotte is in deep crisis and can't find its game yet. Even the return of key players from the infirmary does not save the situation. On the home court, the Hornets will try to put up a fight, but their chances of success are slim.
Phoenix, on the contrary, felt confident after the victory over Philadelphia. The team is reaching a new level and is ready to exploit the opponent's weaknesses. The team's leaders are in good shape, and the motivation to beat the underdog gives an additional incentive. We believe that the Suns have a better chance of success in this confrontation.
Our prediction is Phoenix win with a handicap of (-2.5) points for 1.70
Bet on total
The game is likely to be played in a cautious manner. Charlotte has struggled to score points due to offensive problems, and Phoenix has not yet demonstrated consistent scoring. Given this, the overall total will probably not be broken.
Betting Tip - total over 218.5 points for 1.67
Bet on statistics
Despite winning the last game, the Suns continue to struggle with inconsistency. The team has a hard time showing a high level throughout all games, which could affect the game against Charlotte. We assume that Phoenix will not beat its individual total.
Betting Tip - Phoenix individual total over 111.5 points for 1.70
