Charlotte Hornets vs New Orleans Pelicans Preview
Ranked ninth and 10th in their respective conferences, the 32-35 Charlotte Hornets and 27-39 New Orleans Pelicans will meet at Smoothie King Center on Friday night. This is their first meeting in 2021-22 after both the Pelicans and Hornets won on the road during last season’s two-game series, adding to a streak which has seen the visitor win each of their last five head-to-head matchups. More recently, New Orleans was upset 108-102 by Orlando at this venue despite Jonas Valanciunas’ 30-point, 15-rebound double-double and C.J. McCollum’s 32-point, eight-assist display in the absence of Brandon Ingram. In a major blow to the Pelicans, McCollum will join Ingram on the sidelines due to health and safety protocols. Meanwhile, the Hornets fell 115-101 to Boston at home on Wednesday, marking their 13th loss in 17 games.
