Premium Pick

Charlotte is on a 1-8 SU/ATS run but is in the rare role of favorite. They were last favored at home against the Lakers and lost 121-115. They're on a 1-3 SU/ATS run as chalk and rank 28th in the NBA in scoring and 26th in shooting, while the defense is 28th in points surrendered and 26th in field goal shooting allowed. Charlotte is on a 17-27 spread run, 4-12 ATS versus losing teams, and 7-18 ATS against opponents that allow 46% shooting or worse. Houston is home from a four-game trip and has played eight of its last 12 on the road, so back the home dog. Play Houston.
