What to Know
The New Orleans Pelicans haven’t won a game against the Brooklyn Nets since Oct. 26 of 2018, but they’ll be looking to end the drought Wednesday. The Pelicans and Brooklyn are opening their 2022-2023 seasons against one another at 7:30 p.m. ET at Barclays Center. Last year was nothing to brag about for New Orleans (36-46), so the team is looking forward to a new start. While the Nets were not exactly top dog last year, they did wrap up the year with a winning record of 44-38.
The point spread is more or less neutral, so fans should expect a close matchup. We’ll see if the game is as close as the oddsmakers expect or if one of these teams has a surprise blowout in them.
