The Brooklyn Nets and New Orleans Pelicans meet Wednesday in New Orleans looking to recover from blowout defeats: Brooklyn fell 130-93 to Dallas, while the Pelicans lost 138-87 to Golden State, their worst regular-season loss. New Orleans is 4-7 after a four-game winning streak gave way to three straight losses, and it was without Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy against the Warriors; the team now faces a demanding stretch of games against winning opponents. Nets coach Jordi Fernández has pointed to turnovers and defensive disconnection as problems, while Brooklyn could get young guards Mikel Brown Jr. and Egor Dëmin back. One betting preview favors New Orleans by 5.5 points, citing the Pelicans’ home-court edge and recent win over Brooklyn, though both teams arrive in poor form.

Spurs’ Vassell Questionable With Abductor Tightness

Devin Vassell is questionable for Monday with left abductor tightness, which could create more minutes for Carter Bryant. Despite uneven three-point shooting, Vassell remains a valued scorer and defender, though Tobias Harris’s return could also prompt the Spurs to reconsider Vassell’s starting role.
