Rotoworld Player News

Tidjane Salaün

CHA Forward #31

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Tidjane Salaün (ankle) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Thunder.

Salaün did not play in Saturday’s win over the Bulls, sitting out with a sore left ankle. Josh Green played 25 minutes off the bench, and the Hornets had to go small when fill-in PJ Hall was not on the floor, given the team’s many absences in the frontcourt.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller (knee) is probable for Monday’s game against the Thunder.

Miller is dealing with a left knee contusion, but the probable tag suggests that he will be available for Monday’s matchup with the reigning champs. Miller hasn’t missed a game in a month, with Sion James being his replacement in a December 3 loss to the Knicks. With Kon Knueppel questionable, James may start even if Miller is available.
Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Kon Knueppel (hip) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Thunder.

Knueppel is dealing with a right hip contusion, hence his appearance on the Hornets’ initial injury report for Monday. His absence would open up a spot in the starting lineup, with fellow rookie Sion James being the most likely replacement.
Ryan Kalkbrenner

CHA Center #11

Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) is out for Monday’s game against the Thunder.

Monday’s game will be the eighth that Kalkbrenner has missed since suffering a sprained left elbow. Who starts at center on Monday depends on the health of Moussa Diabaté (wrist), who is questionable after missing Charlotte’s last two games. If he can play, Diabaté will likely start. If not, PJ Hall would retain the job.
Moussa Diabaté

CHA Forward #14

Moussa Diabaté (wrist) is questionable for Monday’s game against the Thunder.

Diabaté has missed Charlotte’s last two games with a sprained right wrist. With Ryan Kalkbrenner and Mason Plumlee already out, the Hornets turned to PJ Hall to fill the void at the center position. He’ll get another start if Diabaté cannot return on Monday.
Miles Bridges

CHA Forward #0

Miles Bridges powered the Hornets to a 112-99 win over the Bulls with 26 points (11-of-18 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 14 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes.

Bridges delivered an impressive all-around stat sheet-stuffing performance as Charlotte erased an early deficit, outscoring Chicago 62-41 in the second half to pull away for a relatively easy win. The 27-year-old forward has scored at least 25 points in back-to-back games as he continues to receive additional creation possessions and play a larger role from a rebounding standpoint due to injuries. The Hornets have four games next week including matchups against the Thunder, Raptors, Pacers and Jazz.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller finished with 22 points (8-of-19 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block over 36 minutes during Saturday’s win over the Bulls.

Miller went off in the late stages of this one after entering halftime with just four points, knocking down 7-of-12 shots, including 4-of-7 from three-point range, to finish with a game-high 18 second-half points. The 23-year-old forward is averaging 21.3 shot attempts over his last four games as the Hornets continue to lean on him more in clutch situations.
Tidjane Salaün

CHA Forward #31

Tidjane Salaün (ankle) is out for Saturday’s game against the Bulls.

Salauün is out due to a sore left ankle. While his absence does not affect fantasy basketball, it does leave the Hornets down another frontcourt player. With Ryan Kalkbrenner, Moussa Diabaté and Mason Plumlee already out, the Hornets will have to lean heavily on Miles Bridges and PJ Hall.
Ryan Kalkbrenner

CHA Center #11

Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) and Moussa Diabaté (wrist) have been ruled out against the Bulls on Saturday.

With Mason Plumlee (groin) out until at least February, Charlotte will play this game without a true center. PJ Hall played 19 minutes as a starter on Friday, while Tidjane Salaün played 22 minutes off the bench and was more productive. Both will play significant roles once again.
Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Kon Knueppel dropped 26 points (9-of-16 FGs, 5-of-7 FTs), four rebounds and three assists over 33 minutes in Friday’s loss to the Bucks.

Knueppel showed zero signs of rust following a one-game absence recovering from a sprained right ankle, topping 20 points for the sixth time in his last nine games since December 12. The 20-year-old rookie sensation has been a revelation this season, delivering sixth-round fantasy value, averaging 19.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.2 blocks through 33 games.
