What to Know
The Brooklyn Nets' road trip will continue as they head out to face the New Orleans Pelicans at 8:00 p.m. ET on Monday at Smoothie King Center. The Nets are expected to win (but not by much) so they better bring their A-game into this one.
The Nets are headed into this one after the oddsmakers set last week's over/under low at 220.5, but even that wound up being too high. They took a 105-100 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Cavaliers. The loss hurts even more since Brooklyn was up 73-59 with 6:12 left in the third.
Meanwhile, the Pelicans' recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Friday after their fourth straight loss. They suffered a grim 115-88 defeat to the Magic. The matchup marked New Orleans' lowest-scoring game so far this season.
The Pelicans' loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Brandon Boston Jr., who went 10 for 17 en route to 26 points plus six rebounds and two steals, and Jose Alvarado, who posted 21 points plus five assists and five rebounds.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, the Pelicans struggled to get the ball back on offense and finished the game with only six offensive rebounds. That's the fewest offensive rebounds they've posted since back in April.
Brooklyn has been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 4-6 record this season. As for New Orleans, their defeat dropped their record down to 3-7.
The Nets came up short against the Pelicans in their previous matchup back in March, falling 104-91. Can the Nets avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
