Five of the past seven meetings have gone UNDER and both teams figure to cool off after Charlotte hit 51.1 percent of its shots in its season opener against San Antonio and New Orleans shot nearly 50 percent against Brooklyn. The Pelicans hit 12 of 26 from 3-point range and the Hornets made 13 of 29 from long range. Terry Rozier led Charlotte with 24 points and Zion Williamson scored 25 points in his return from injury. The Pelicans finished last season 17-7-1 UNDER its last 25 road games and 9-3 UNDER following a win. The last five meetings at Charlotte have stayed UNDER and the Hornets were 24-7-2 UNDER at home against teams with winning road records, which is notable even early in the season. Take the UNDER.
