P.J. Washington Doubtful To Return On Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward/center P.J. Washington (ankle) suffered a right ankle injury in Friday's meeting with the Chicago Bulls. He's not expected to return. Another extended absence wouldn't be an ideal scenario for Charlotte, considering the team has been without LaMelo Ball (ankle), Gordon Hayward (calf), and Mark Williams (back). At any rate, if Washington doesn't […]

Nuggets vs. Warriors NBA DFS Showdown Slate Picks, Value Plays - Thursday Jan 4th

Happy Thursday, RotoBallers! Welcome back to our weekly showdown. Last week, we had a few solid plays, but the value busted. Max Christie really surprised everyone as he crushed his price with only around 1% ownership. Nick Richards was one of the best plays on the board, but Austin Reaves hurt my lineups. We don't […]

Cody Martin Moves Into Starting Five

Charlotte Hornets forward Cody Martin will shift into the starting five ahead of Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The Hornets are going to be shorthanded for this game with Brandon Miller (hip) unable to play. As a result, Martin will move into the starting five and should see a boost in usage. He's not […]

Brandon Miller Ruled Out For Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The rookie forward wasn't on the original injury report, but will ultimately sit this game out due to a left hip contusion. The Hornets are already shorthanded, which means Nick Smith Jr. could be asked to make […]

Mark Williams Unavailable On Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Williams has missed over 10 games in a row due to a lower back contusion. It's uncertain when Williams will get back on the court, but for now fantasy managers should continue to consider him as day-to-day. […]

Terry Rozier Will Play On Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. As expected, Rozier will play after being listed as probable heading into this game. The expectation is that he'll move right into the starting five, which will shift Ish Smith back to the bench. Fantasy managers who have Rozier rostered […]

Mark Williams Out Again On Monday

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) won't return for Monday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. The 22-year-old hasn't played in weeks because of a back issue. At this rate, nobody can say when he'll be back on the court. However, until then, Nick Richards will continue to handle things underneath the rim. Richards has averaged […]

Terry Rozier Ruled Out Against Denver

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) won't play on Monday against the Denver Nuggets. He's not feeling well and had been listed as questionable leading up to this one. However, he'll get the night off, so his next chance to return will be on Tuesday in Sacramento. The Hornets are down some of their other […]

Gordon Hayward Expected To Miss At Least Two Weeks

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (calf) suffered a calf strain on Tuesday during their game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He hasn't been able to play since then and the team has now announced that he will be re-evaluated in two weeks. The Hornets have made it a habit to list Hayward and Mark Williams […]

Terry Rozier Uncertain For Monday Night

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (illness) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Denver Nuggets. He's under the weather, so he may join Gordon Hayward (calf) and LaMelo Ball (ankle) on the shelf for the meeting against the defending champs. If that's the case, Ish Smith, Cody Martin, and Nick Smith Jr. could see more […]

Mark Williams Likely To Remain Sidelined Monday

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) is unlikely to return to action in Monday's meeting with Denver. He's again listed as doubtful on the injury report. A lower back contusion has kept Williams on the sidelines for 10 games, and the Hornets have no reason to rush him back with the season going nowhere. Nick […]

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (ankle) is currently listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The rookie forward sat out of Tuesday's game due to a right ankle sprain. Bryce McGowens took over for Miller in the starting five on Tuesday. If Miller plays, McGowens will likely remain a starter with […]

Gordon Hayward Won't Play On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The veteran forward injured his calf during Tuesday's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. As a result, Hayward will miss at least one more due to what the team is calling a left calf strain. The Hornets […]

Mark Williams Sitting Out On Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The big man continues to miss time due to a lower back contusion.

Brandon Miller Won't Return On Saturday

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (ankle) won't return to Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The rookie forward was cleared to return, but the Hornets have decided to hold him out for the rest of the game. The hope is that this is a minor issue and Miller won't miss anymore action outside of Saturday's […]

Mark Williams Still Out On Saturday

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) remains out for Saturday's matchup with the Nuggets. The 22-year-old has missed his last six games (and seven of his previous eight) because of a low back contusion, so it's anyone's guess when he'll be back on the floor. As a result, Nick Richards will remain in the starting […]

Mark Williams Doubtful For Another Game

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (back) continues to hang around on the injury report with a doubtful tag ahead of Saturday's matchup against Denver. A lower back issue has kept him out for six games, and the signs aren't good that he will be able to return on Saturday. Nick Richards should continue to start […]

Cody Martin Could Make His Season Debut On Saturday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's clash with the Nuggets. The 28-year-old has yet to play in 2023-24, but it looks like he could be ready for his season debut.
