Command Analysis
Current form
Charlotte lost to the Toronto Raptors 96-97 on January 8 in a match on its own court. It all started off encouraging. The hosts played the first half confidently and went into the big break with a 50:45 advantage. Collin Sexton was noticeable, aggressive, scored 22 points and became the most productive member of the team. But basketball is not about promises, it's about control. 18 ball losses became the very crack into which the game went. In the second half, Toronto seized the initiative, and the decisive breakthrough left Charlotte without time to respond. LaMelo Ball's layup 1.6 seconds before the siren only narrowed the gap. The Hornets are fourth in the Southeast Division. 15 wins, 22 losses.

1.88Tip and bets
Charlotte and Indiana are approaching the game after disappointing defeats and with serious personnel problems. The Pacers have a particularly difficult situation. The losses of Haliburton before the end of the season, as well as Maturin, Jackson and Toppin, significantly shorten the rotation. The Hornets also have personnel difficulties, including the absence of Miller, but the team looks more focused at home. Indiana has already beaten Charlotte this season, but now it comes with a long series of setbacks and a clear lack of fresh energy. Charlotte remains competitive on its site.
Our prediction is that Toronto will win by a handicap of (-1.5) points in 1.71
