Charlotte Hornets vs Washington Wizards Prediction & Picks, October 26, 2026

The Hornets struggle to defend against three-point shooting and rebounds, which could give the Wizards some chances. However, Grayson Allen has been inconsistent lately, especially with scoring and assists, making it tough to trust him to hit the over. With the odds sitting nicely at +110, betting on him to score under 18.5 points and assists feels like a smart play. The risk is that both teams could be in a tight game, which might lead to more opportunities for him. But with the way he's been playing, it seems likely he won't hit that mark.

Charlotte Hornets vs Washington Wizards: Dennis Schroder Under 19.5 Pts + Asts (+115)

The Charlotte Hornets let opponents shoot a lot of three-pointers, which can change how the game flows. With the Washington Wizards also struggling to control rebounds, this matchup could lead to a fast-paced game where scoring might not be as easy. Dennis Schroder has been inconsistent, averaging fewer points and assists at home compared to away games, and he's got a solid chance of staying under 19.5 combined. Schroder's home games show he often scores and assists less, making this bet look good. However, both teams are pretty close in talent, so there's always a chance he might surprise us. But based on recent patterns, taking the under on his points and assists seems smart.

Charlotte Hornets vs Washington Wizards: Moussa Diabate Under 16.5 Pts + Rebs (+115)

Moussa Diabate has been playing well, but the matchup against the Charlotte Hornets could be tricky for him. The Hornets let opponents grab a lot of rebounds, averaging nearly 45 a game, which means there will be plenty of chances for both teams to score and rebound. However, they also give up a lot of three-pointers, which can change how the game flows and might not lead to many rebounds for Diabate. Betting on Diabate to score under 16.5 points and rebounds seems smart here. The Wizards also struggle to force turnovers, which means the game should be more straightforward, but Diabate's overall chances could be limited if the game gets out of hand. The risk is that both teams are fairly close, which could lead to unexpected opportunities for him.
