2026-27 NBA Preseason: Sunday's Picks

The 2026-27 NBA Preseason continues today with three games, including the Milwaukee Bucks facing the Charlotte Hornets at the Spectrum Center. The Hornets dropped their preseason opener 124-90 to the Brooklyn Nets while heavily shorthanded. They are expected to remain without multiple key rotational figures tonight, including Kon Knueppel, Coby White and Brandon Miller. The Bucks have split their first two games while head coach Taylor Jenkins has been testing a massive frontcourt pairing, starting rookies and newcomers alongside veteran center Myles Turner.
