NextImg:BetMGM bonus code POSTBET for NBA: Hornets vs. Pelicans odds, prediction, player props

The Hornets head to New Orleans on Sunday in a clash between two of the NBA’s worst teams.

Charlotte star LaMelo Ball is out for the year with ankle and wrist injuries, leaving plenty of opportunities for his teammates to pick up.

Regardless of who you like to win tonight’s game, you can get in on the action with BetMGM.

Head over to BetMGM and use the bonus code POSTBET if you want to tail or fade this pick.

Get up to $1,500 back in bonus bets if your first bet doesn’t win.

A 25-point scorer has vanished from the Hornets’ lineup.

With the promising second-year wing Brandon Miller out for the season as well, it’s Miles Bridges’ team for the final few weeks of the season.

Bridges is having another solid season for the Hornets and has proven to take a step up with the oft-injured Ball on the bench.

In 17 games with Ball not playing, Bridges is averaging 21.9 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 4.7 assists, which are all a tick up from his season-long average.

The Pelicans are allowing the fifth-most points (119.2) to opponents in the league and lack the wings to deal with Bridges’ size and athleticism, thanks to injuries to Herb Jones and Trey Murphy.

Look for Bridges to score and fill up the box score otherwise on Sunday.
