ANALYSIS:
Regardless of what the win percentage says, New Orleans isn't a very good team this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 207th overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 20-12. They are also ranked by this site as the #2 team (out of 13) in the Southland (average ranking 265.5).

If there is a strength for New Orleans this year, it's probably on the defensive end of the court. The team is rated 156th in defensive efficiency, allowing fewer than 102 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. New Orleans will look to secure a relatively healthy number of easy scoring opportunities off of steals. They're ranked 78th in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 12.19.

New Orleans doesn't perform as well offensively as they do defensively. The team is ranked 244th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 97 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. New Orleans is one of the least accurate teams when shooting from long-distance. They are ranked eighth from the bottom in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 29.2% of their attempts from long vs. AO. New Orleans also tends to be very careless with the ball and allows far too many breakaway opportunities off of their own turnovers. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 13.05, which ranks 328th in D1.

When playing on the road, New Orleans performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 306th in our site's away-from-home metric.
