ANALYSIS

Our pick leverages Bub Carrington's sustained volume, as he has cleared this 10.5-point threshold in nine of his last ten outings while seeing a 23.3% usage rate over the last 14 days—a significant jump from his 17.6% season average. With the Wizards missing Trae Young (knee), Alex Sarr (hamstring), and D'Angelo Russell (trade status), Carrington is cemented as a primary offensive engine against a Hornets defense that allows 114.2 points on the road and struggles to contain high-volume perimeter shooters.
Key Data
Hornets rank 26th in Opp PPG to guards; Charlotte allows 28th worst True Shooting % to opposing backcourts.
