The Philadelphia 76ers (4-1) host the Charlotte Hornets (3-2) on Sunday, April 11 at 6:00 PM ET at Xfinity Mobile Arena in NBA action. The Basketlog model gives the 76ers a 56% chance to win and projects a 110-112 score (Hornets – 76ers), about 222 total points. This season, the 76ers are 2-1 at home and the Hornets are 1-1 on the road. Since the start of the season: 4-1 for the 76ers and 3-2 for the Hornets (current streaks: 76ers W1, Hornets L1).

The analysis Model

A wide-open game: the model barely separates the two teams. The model projects 76ers 112 – 110 Hornets, a margin of about 1.9 points in favor of the 76ers and a total around 222 points. Expect a game at a standard NBA pace. The 76ers will be without Jabari Walker or Tacko Fall (and 2 others). The Hornets will be without Kon Knueppel or Coby White (and 2 others).

  • The Hornets need to win the pace battle to stay in the game.
  • The Hornets' defense allows clearly fewer points (110.3 pts/game).
