The Nets have a 46-118 record after two years under coach Jordi Fernández; now they've given him a vote of confidence for another season, and although Julius Randle says this Brooklyn team could surprise the world, in the sportsbooks nothing could be further from the truth, as the Nets are the least favored team in the entire league to win the NBA.
The Hornets will be favored to win at the Barclays Center in the season opener against the Nets; the truth is that the Hornets finished the 2025-2026 season on a high note, winning 28 of their last 38 games, and Charlotte would finish with a winning record for the first time in four years.
However, the Hornets roster for the new season has undergone significant changes, as the team's star, LaMelo Ball, has left for Minnesota, but Naz Reid arrived in his place. Kon Knuckleball is among Charlotte's injured players, as is Coby White.

Our Brooklyn Nets vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction
Even without Ball, these Hornets seem well-positioned for another successful season, as they finished last season as one of the best three-point shooting teams, averaging a high 16.3 three-pointers per game. However, reducing turnovers will be key to winning more games.
With Randle now on the team, joining rookie Mikel Brown Jr. and Michael Porter Jr., there are still doubts about whether it will be possible to turn things around for these Nets, given that they have had stars come and gone without being able to lift the Brooklyn team.
Our prediction for Nets vs Hornets is: Hornets ML.
