Season Series Series tied 0-0.

Charlotte swept Memphis last season, but both rosters have been overhauled. The Hornets bring the stronger 2025-26 baseline, while Memphis leans on a younger core and health-driven volatility that could reshape the eventual spread.

Injury Report

Charlotte announced on September 25 that Kon Knueppel and Grant Williams will miss the preseason with hamstring injuries and be re-evaluated in the first regular-season week. Brandon Miller is also returning from left-shoulder surgery. Memphis enters camp with Zach Edey, Scotty Pippen Jr., Jaylen Wells, Walter Clayton Jr. and Karim Lopez carrying recent injury concerns, while Richie Saunders is expected out into December. Game-day designations remain subject to change.

Key Players

Memphis
Cedric Coward
Averaged 13.6 points and 5.9 rebounds as a rookie last season.
Charlotte
Brandon Miller
Averaged 20.2 points while shooting 38.3% from three last season.

Key Matchup Edge

Charlotte owns the cleaner proven baseline: last season's Hornets posted a 119.4 offensive rating and held opponents to 111.2 points per game, while Memphis finished 24th in defensive rating. Even after major roster changes, Charlotte's established shooting around Miller and Knueppel gives it the clearer spacing advantage if both wings are healthy.

3 Things to Watch

  • Charlotte wing health entering November
  • Memphis frontcourt minutes around Edey
  • Coward usage in rebuilt offense

Betting Breakdown

Charlotte carries the stronger baseline into this November matchup, even though both clubs changed dramatically over the summer. The Hornets went 44-38 last season, finished 50-32-0 ATS, and swept Memphis by 15 and 23 points. Their offense ranked fifth in offensive rating, and Brandon Miller plus Kon Knueppel give Charlotte high-level perimeter scoring if both are healthy. Memphis went 25-57 and 37-44-1 ATS, with an 11-30 road record, then moved on from Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. The rebuild now leans on Cedric Coward, No. 3 pick Cameron Boozer, Zach Edey and veteran additions such as Jerami Grant and Isaiah Stewart. That makes early-season role clarity the key handicap. Charlotte should have the cleaner half-court spacing and recent defensive profile, but its hamstring issues on the wing could matter if they linger. Memphis' path is physicality, offensive rebounding and extra possessions. With no stable November line posted yet, bettors should weigh health, Coward's usage and Charlotte's post-Ball playmaking before treating last season's gap as permanent.

Memphis Betting Outlook

Memphis enters 2026-27 with a reset roster after a 25-57 season and a 37-44-1 ATS finish. Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. are gone, placing more creation responsibility on Cedric Coward, Cameron Boozer and the new veteran group. Coward averaged 13.6 points and 5.9 rebounds as a rookie and is expected to receive more touches. The Grizzlies' 11-30 road record and 118.8 defensive rating from last season remain the biggest warning signs. Zach Edey's health is especially important because his size can change the rebounding battle. Memphis is most attractive when its young core creates transition chances and second possessions, rather than relying on a settled half-court offense.

Charlotte Betting Outlook

Charlotte is also reshaped, but its 44-38 season and 50-32-0 ATS record provide a stronger starting point. The Hornets traded LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges, shifting the offense toward Brandon Miller, Kon Knueppel and offseason addition Naz Reid. Miller averaged 20.2 points last season, while Knueppel hit 42.5% from three as a rookie. Charlotte's biggest early concern is health: Knueppel and Grant Williams are set to miss preseason time with hamstring injuries, and Miller is returning from shoulder surgery. If the main scorers are intact by November, Charlotte should still have the shooting depth and defensive structure to pressure a young Memphis rotation at Spectrum Center.
