Recent history between the Hornets and Pelicans

The series between a pair of cities that have donned the Hornets moniker at one point in time has tilted heavily to the folks from the Big Easy. New Orleans leads the all-time series 28-13, but some of those matchups were between the Charlotte Bobcats and New Orleans Hornets. Since Charlotte regained the Hornets name and New Orleans became the Pelicans, New Orleans has a 14-7 edge. Last year, the two split the two-game season series with the home team winning each game.

Odds via FanDuel Sportsbook

Despite having yet to win as much as a single game this season, the Pelicans will enter tonight's contest as a 2.5-point favorite. LaMelo Ball is questionable with his ankle impingement, which likely has a part in where this line is currently at. The over/under for this one is currently sitting at 236.5.
