76ers vs Hornets odds<\/h2>\n

We couldn’t find a Canadian price for this game when we published. American odds aren’t a fair guide to what’s on offer here. Our NBA betting<\/a> hub lists who’s licensed where.<\/p>\n\n\n

Philadelphia keeps winning low-scoring games<\/h2>\n

Tyrese Maxey has scored between 26 and 32 in all six games and averages 28.2. James had 20 points, nine rebounds and eight assists against New York, and his 7.0 assists lead the club.<\/p>\n

Joel Embiid had 28, 11 and 10 against Milwaukee but only 10 points on Friday. Brown missed that game with his knee and is day to day. VJ Edgecombe has started five of six.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia has held five of six opponents under 110.<\/p>\n

Players to watch<\/h2>\n

LeBron James, Philadelphia.<\/strong> Twenty points, nine rebounds and eight assists against the Knicks, and now a second game in 24 hours at 41. He has sat one of six so far.<\/p>\n

Brandon Miller, Charlotte.<\/strong> The Hornets are 2-1 when he scores 30 or more and 1-2 when he doesn’t. Friday’s 19 came on 37 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n

Score prediction<\/h2>\n

76ers 109-101 Hornets.<\/strong> Last season’s ratings make Charlotte about an eight-point favourite at home. We’re going against them: those numbers had Knueppel and White on the floor, and the Hornets have not reached 90 in two games.<\/p>\n

76ers vs Hornets prediction<\/h2>\n

Philadelphia is 2-0 on the road and has not allowed more than 116. Charlotte’s wins came against Brooklyn, Miami and Washington, and Miller scored 34 and 39 in the two at home.<\/p>\n

Our pick: Philadelphia to win, the 76ers as underdogs or at -2.5 or shorter.<\/strong> Both clubs are tired, so we’ll leave the total alone.<\/p>\n

Our player prop is LeBron James under 19.5 points. He has scored 14, 17, 18, 13 and 20, over the line once and by half a point, and this is his second game in two nights. If he sits, the bet is void. Covers’ NBA prop board listed 19.5 at 8:03 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n

What time is 76ers vs Hornets?<\/strong>

Tip-off is 6:00pm ET on Saturday 31 October 2026 at Spectrum Center, Charlotte.<\/p><\/div>

Where can I watch 76ers vs Hornets in Canada?<\/strong>

No Canadian network has picked this one up. NBA League Pass carries it.<\/p><\/div>

Is Jaylen Brown playing for the 76ers?<\/strong>

He missed Friday’s win over the Knicks with a knee injury and is listed day to day. Philadelphia had not filed Saturday’s report at 8 a.m. ET.<\/p><\/div>

Are both teams on a back-to-back?<\/strong>

Yes. Philadelphia beat the Knicks and Charlotte lost in Washington on Friday night.<\/p><\/div>

What is our 76ers vs Hornets prediction?<\/strong>

76ers 109-101. We back Philadelphia to win, as underdogs or at -2.5 or shorter.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n
