“The focus is on the guys that we do have in uniform. “To get that first game at home, it’s a huge advantage for us.” The game will be live streamed on fuboTV, which offers a free trial. While they haven’t made the playoffs since 2016, they appear to be a franchise on the rise. Instead, after a year plagued by COVID issues, injuries and a strange lack of chemistry, they had to settle for the next-to-last play-in spot. “I am really proud of this group.” Like all cord-cutting alternatives, there are plenty of options, especially for sports. “They play small and they play fast,” said McMillan, whose own team ranked sixth in the league in scoring (113.9). “They are a team that wants to get out in transition.” The Hornets are in the play-in tournament for the second year in a row. The winner of the 9-10 game advances to a road contest Friday against the loser of the 7-8 game between Brooklyn and Cleveland for the final playoff spot in the East. First up: the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night in a matchup between the ninth and 10th seeds in the East. With a young core led by Trae Young, the Hawks set a goal of finishing in the top four in the East this season.

Hawks and Pelicans keep seasons alive with NBA play-in ... (The Guardian)

The Atlanta Hawks and New Orleans Pelicans avoided elimination on Wednesday night with victories in the NBA play-in tournament.

Charlotte had a bit of momentum in the closing minutes of the half, but it sure didn’t carry over to the third. After Ingram went to the bench with three fouls 5:17 before halftime, McCollum carried the Pelicans offensively. The Pelicans missed seven consecutive shots during the run. Valaciunas had 22 points and 14 rebounds. New Orleans beat Los Angeles in three of four meetings this season. All five Atlanta starters scored in double figures, as did Bogdan Bogdanovic off the bench.

NBA picks: Best bets for Wednesday's play-in games, including ... (CBSSports.com)

With the 2021-22 NBA regular season now in the books, the basketball betting market is hotter than ever. CBS Sports will be providing daily picks for the ...

The Spurs are heavily reliant on Murray … who shot 11 of 37 in those two March matchups against New Orleans. On the season, Murray is shooting 4 of 14 when defended by Herb Jones. The Spurs face the same matchup issues that the Pelicans do: Their best players are going to have a hard time against this specific opponent, and that's going to force role players to generate offense. The Pelicans and Spurs have played twice in the past month, and while Brandon Ingram missed both matchups, neither came close to this point total. The Hornets are going to throw a variety of looks at Young, and if he can't adjust on the fly, this is going to be a bit of a slugfest. When Trae Young is in the game, Atlanta's offense plays at an elite level, and when he isn't, the Hawks tend to falter. If there's one reason to lean on the under here, though, it's Charlotte's inexplicable ability to limit Young where almost every other team in the NBA fails. But both of these defenses have actually improved a bit lately, with Atlanta jumping up from No. 25 in defense before March 1 to No. 18 afterward.
