BOS vs CHA Dream11 Prediction NBA Live Boston Celtics vs Charlotte Hornets

BOS vs CHA Dream11: The NBA is still in its Preseason stages and there is no doubt that the action is a bit off during this leg as the Regular Season brings the constant rotations that will define a team. In this game of the Preseason, Boston Celtics will take on Charlotte Hornets.

Celtics will come into the fresh season after a Playoffs run to the Finals, losing in six games to the Golden State Warriors. They were the best defensive team last season and will love to build on that momentum. On the other hand, Charlotte Hornets wasted a decent start and mid-season run last season and a cold end to the season put them in the NBA Play-in tournament where they lost.

Home: Boston Celtics

Venue: TD Garden

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

The Celtics will like to build upon their young core of Tatum and Brown. Bringing in Malcolm Brogdon bolsters the guard position further that already has studs like Marcus Smart, Derrick White alongside Jaylen Brown. Danilo Gallinari will act as the stretch-four in what is a team that looks like they both have length and sharpshooting chops. Robert Williams is injured which hurts the defense.

The Hornets are a team run by LaMelo Ball, someone who can do a lot of things right. For all his promise, Miles Bridges will need to be more consistent after having a resounding start to his career. Gordon Hayward’s health remains a question mark whereas Terry Rozier also will need more consistency. The middle position needs work whereas PJ Washington needs to be utilized better this season.

NBA Scores, Fantasy Basketball Top Picks

Jayson Tatum(BOS)
Jayson had a MVP-styled season but he seems to play out of control at times. In this preseason game, I don’t know how much run time he will get. He can be chosen as a Star/Pro Player in the Dream 11 NBA Fantasy scenario.

LaMelo Ball(CHA)
Ball is a dagger player who can run the floor in more ways than one can count and will be hunting for another successful season..

Jaylen Brown(BOS)
Jaylen is an All-Star level player who has become one of the best two-way players in the world and will be up for another big season.

Miles Bridges(CHA)
Athletic Bridges has shooting capabilities, making him a strong scoring player. Can he take another leap in his career this season?

Marcus Smart(BOS)
Smart was showering opposition with some elite defense and he will be up for another big season after a Defensive Player of the Year campaign

Terry Rozier(CHA)
Terry is a spectacular player who can score in many ways but he will need to do more this time around the Hornets are to take the next step.

BOS vs CHA Dream11 Lineup Balancers

Al Horford(BOS): The Center can be an effective option despite his age.
Malcolm Brogdon(BOS): He can provide terrific all-around production but how does he fit here?
Kelly Oubre Jr.(CHA): He is too inconsistent but had some fire games last season.
Derrick White(BOS): The Guard is a superb defensive player but isn’t there a logjam in the backcourt at this point?
Gordon Hayward(CHA): Health has been an issue, too many injuries.
Danilo Gallinari(BOS): Danilo can bury multiple jumpers.
