**#2 NBA CAPPER** Mike Lundin's #NBA Free Pick
(NBA) Utah vs. Charlotte,
Money Line: -124.00 Charlotte (Home)
Result: Win
Play: Charlotte Hornets
Rating: 5*

We picked up some easy cash with the Charlotte Hornets as the Eastern Conference *GAME OF THE MONTH* against Indiana on Monday, and I like the 5-1 Hornets again here as they host the 5-3 Utah Jazz Wednesday night.

I'm really impressed with how this Hornets team is playing. They combine a rock solid D ranked 5th in the NBA with a more than capable offense. Eight players finished in double digits when they defeated the Pacers their last time out so it's not just about shutting down one player. The Hornets have averaged just 11.3 turnovers per game while forcing an average of 15.0 for one of the best differentials in the league.

The Jazz should never be underestimated as their 2nd ranked D just about always gives them a chance to steal the games late. They're just 24th in the league for scoring though, and after opening a five-game road swing with back-to-back wins at New York and Philadelphia I think this looks like a pretty tough spot for the Jazz.

The Jazz are 2-11 ATS in their last 13 when visiting a team with a home winning % of greater than .600 and just 6-20-3 ATS in their last 29 Wednesday games. The Hornets are 5-1 ATS in their last six Wednesday night games and I think they'll turn that into a 6-1 run tonight.

Monday's NBA Eastern Conf. *GAME OF THE MONTH* was an EASY WINNER with the Hornets, but Mike took one on the chin on Tuesday as a he lost big with the Cavs. Now a new day and new opportunities to make bank at the hardwood. Mike has identified a pick from the NBA Western Conference on Wednesday's card so good that he's rated it his *GAME OF THE MONTH*! Don't miss out on this GUARANTEED WINNER!
