The Phoenix Suns face the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday, Nov. 13, 2026, at 03:00 UTC (local time at the Mortgage Matchup Center), carrying an average of 230.9 total points from their recent outings into the matchup, according to Bild Sportwetten.
Bild Sportwetten reported that Phoenix enters the contest with stronger offensive output numbers but persistent defensive questions, while Charlotte looks to build on a 124-112 home win against Cleveland that snapped a six-game skid.
Jordan Goodwin provides an immediate boost to the perimeter rotation for Phoenix after returning from a calf injury to hit six three-pointers in a 133-110 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers, as Bild Sportwetten reported.
That shooting touch stretches the floor alongside Devin Booker, who averaged 25.1 points, 4.8 assists, and 2.7 rebounds across the preceding ten games. Charlotte counters with Brandon Miller, who posted 20.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in his last nine appearances.
Over their last ten contests, the Phoenix Suns averaged 112.8 points while allowing 118.1 points per game. The Charlotte Hornets averaged 97.7 points and conceded 111.1 points over the same stretch, resulting in an average game total of 208.8 points. Phoenix holds a minus-5.3 point differential compared to Charlotte’s minus-13.4 mark. The Suns secured four wins in their last seven home games, whereas the Hornets dropped three consecutive matches on the road.
In head-to-head play, both teams split their previous two meetings, with Charlotte taking the most recent encounter 127-107. Phoenix brings a 3-1 home record from its recent four-game stretch, which included a 133-110 win against the Clippers, a 102-99 victory over Houston, a 117-104 win against Orlando, and a 96-122 loss to San Antonio.
Charlotte’s recent road struggles saw the team held to 104 points or fewer in away losses against Brooklyn, Washington, and Detroit.
Bild Sportwetten reported that while the Suns’ higher scoring numbers point toward a victory wager, their defensive lapses prevent a clear handicap advantage. Charlotte’s low-scoring away trend weighs heavily against the Hornets, though their 124-point performance against Cleveland demonstrates offensive capability when rhythm is established.
Tip-off is set for 03:00 UTC on Nov. 13, 2026, at the Mortgage Matchup Center for this regular-season NBA fixture.
