Kings vs. Hornets Prediction, Odds & How to Watch – Tuesday, March 24

The Charlotte Hornets welcome the Sacramento Kings to Spectrum Center on Tuesday night, with tipoff set for 7:00 p.m. ET. Charlotte enters as massive 17‑point favorites, reflecting their strong home form and Sacramento’s road struggles.

The Hornets have won five of their last six and are 8‑1 ATS in their last nine home games, while the Kings have dropped 17 of their last 20 on the road. LaMelo Ball continues to lead Charlotte’s offense, while Kon Knueppel has provided scoring depth.

Sacramento, meanwhile, leans on DeMar DeRozan and Maxime Raynaud, but injuries to key contributors like Domantas Sabonis and Zach LaVine have limited their ceiling. With the total set at 229.5, bettors must weigh Charlotte’s defensive consistency against Sacramento’s tendency to play in higher‑scoring contests.

Best Bet for Kings vs. Hornets

Best Bet: Charlotte Hornets -17 (-110) at BetMGM Sportsbook

Charlotte’s home dominance and Sacramento’s road woes make the spread the sharpest angle. The Hornets are 5‑0 SU in their last five Tuesday games and 12‑5 ATS in their last 17 overall. Sacramento, meanwhile, is just 3‑17 SU in its last 20 road contests and 1‑4 ATS in its last five Tuesday games.

While the Kings have covered in four of their last five against Charlotte, this matchup feels different given their injury list and lack of depth. The Hornets’ defense, ranked eighth in points allowed, should suppress Sacramento’s inefficient offense, which ranks 29th in scoring. The total trends lean OVER when these teams meet in Charlotte, but the safer play is backing the Hornets to cover the large spread.
