Advice and prediction
While Terry Rozier will return for Charlotte, P.J. Washington, Gordon Hayward, LaMelo Ball and Malik Monk will not be available, making it hard to bet on the Hornets, especially as a favorite. The team has struggled even in winnable games while being undermanned, though Rozier had a huge game against Cleveland earlier this season. Take Cavaliers plus-3.5 on Wednesday.
Prediction: Cavaliers 115, Hornets 110
