What happened: New Orleans lists no players on its opening-night injury list. The clean slate arrives as the club opens the 2026-27 campaign.

Why it matters: Availability has shaped New Orleans openers in recent years, with a fully healthy start not seen since 2018. A full roster gives Jamahl Mosley complete rotation options from Game 1.

What to watch: The opener will establish the initial rotation and whether full health holds through the first week.
