James Bouknight Sidelined On Wednesday
3 years agoCharlotte Hornets rookie guard James Bouknight (wrist) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He is dealing with a right wrist sprain. The former UConn Husky has been buried on the bench this year, but the Hornets are extremely short-handed right now, so it's unfortunate he's unable to go. Gordon Hayward (ankle) and Cody Martin (ankle) are also out for the game. Kelly Oubre Jr. will likely join the starting lineup on Wednesday, replacing Hayward, while Ish Smith figures to have a big role off the bench, backing up starting guards LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier. Oubre is a great DFS play on Wednesday and Smith is also worth considering as a low cost value play.
