The Brooklyn Nets (35-28, sixth in the Eastern Conference) welcome the Charlotte Hornets (20-45, 14th in the Eastern Conference) to Barclays Center on Sunday between the fourth and final matchup between the two teams this season. Brooklyn leads the regular-season series 3-0.
The Nets come into this game having won just three of its last 10 games. Every game from this point on is critical for Brooklyn as they try to avoid the play-in tournament. The Nets’ most recent win was possibly its most impressive of the season as they beat the Boston Celtics 115-105 on Friday despite being down 28 points in the second quarter.
