The Charlotte Hornets' 3-point barrage visits La La Land for the last NBA matchup of tonight’s six-game slate against the Los Angeles Clippers.
Kon Knueppel plays a major role from downtown for Charlotte, and my Hornets vs. Clippers prediction and NBA picks expect a big shooting night for the rookie sniper.
Hornets vs Clippers prediction
Hornets vs Clippers best bet: Kon Knueppel Over 3.5 threes (+120)
The Charlotte Hornets' three-point barrage travels to Tinseltown, and Kon Knueppel is our guy tonight.
King Kon is shooting a lethal 42.9% from arc, trailing only Stephen Curry in efficiency among high-volume shooters.
He torched the Los Angeles Clippers with a 6-for-9 night from downtown earlier this season. He’s also knocked down more than four made threes in six of his previous 11 games.
With L.A.'s defense focused on slowing snipers LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller, Knueppel should find plenty of clean looks to light up the Intuit Dome and land this plus-money bet.
