We've got another exciting Eastern Conference contest on Wednesday's NBA schedule as the Charlotte Hornets will host the Brooklyn Nets. Charlotte is 12-31 overall and 8-15 at home, while Brooklyn is 14-33 overall and 9-17 on the road.

The Knicks are 11-point favorites Tuesday, although the Nets do have a rest advantage having played Sunday before a break on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Tom Thibodeau’s group is just 2-3 in the second half of back-to-backs, with both wins coming against the 6-35 Wizards and one of those games requiring overtime.

As the Brooklyn Nets continue to struggle with injuries and a losing streak, take the Charlotte Hornets to cover the spread for tonight's pick and prediction.

Fox immediately supplants Jimmy Butler atop the list of available game-changers, and Brooklyn sees the Kings guard as a trade target — though sources tell The Post that Giannis Antetokounmpo is still the ultimate prize.

De'Aaron Fox is the new name on the market after sending signals he doesn't want to commit long-term to the Kings. Meanwhile, Jimmy Butler remains suspended as the Heat decide his future.

The Brooklyn Nets have their eyes set on trading for Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo over the likes of De'Aaron Fox and Jimmy Butler.
