Advice and prediction
The Cavaliers come in as losers of five of their last seven and 10 of their last 14. However, they knocked off a Bulls side that handled the Hornets on Thursday in their last time out.
Charlotte is at a stage where it’s hard to favor them in any game right now. They’re a team that’s exhausted and beaten down on the second night of a back-to-back. Take Cavaliers plus-2 on Friday.
Prediction: Cavaliers 110, Hornets 101
