Miles Bridges (rest) will not be in action on Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. He will sit out the game for rest purposes. It's a busy week for the Hornets, who begin a stretch of four games in six days Tuesday night.
Nick Smith Jr. may return to the first unit against Atlanta, while
Wendell Moore Jr. and
Marcus Garrett (back) are also options to start in place of Bridges. Additionally,
LaMelo Ball (wrist) and
Mark Williams are expected to get more offensive touches.

Miles Bridges (illness) will play in Monday's contest against the Golden State Warriors. The team has upgraded his status from probable to available. Bridges has been fighting an illness that may impact his performance on Monday, but he remains an appealing fantasy option. After a highly productive February, Bridges started March with an 18-7-7 line in Saturday's 113-100 loss to the Washington Wizards.

Miles Bridges (back) will rejoin the action on Saturday against the New Orleans Pelicans. The 26-year-old is dealing with a back issue and didn't play on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Bridges is enjoying a strong month, having notched 20-plus points in six of eight games. He is in a great position to add to the streak on Saturday, as New Orleans has the third-worst defensive rating in the league. Bridges will reclaim his starting position from
Cody Martin (core), who is unavailable on Saturday.
Josh Okogie will log fewer minutes due to Bridges' return.

Miles Bridges (back) will not suit up on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has been ruled out for the game after being initially considered questionable. Bridges' exit from the lineup gives
Cody Martin and
Josh Okogie a chance to play expanded roles. Charlotte will also be without
LaMelo Ball (wrist), leaving the team without two of its top three scorers. This will open up many additional scoring opportunities for the rest of the crew.
