Plumlee

While Plumlee is sidelined, Moussa Diabaté should continue to see big minutes until Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) returns. PJ Hall will likely be Diabaté’s backup and see rotational minutes while Kalkbrenner is sidelined.

Plumlee will miss a fourth consecutive game with a strained right groin. The Hornets have leaned heavily on Moussa Diabaté, as Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) is also injured.

Monday’s game will be the third that Plumlee has missed with a strained right groin. With Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) also out, the Hornets will lean heavily on Moussa Diabaté as the starting center.

Plumlee will miss a second straight game with a strained right groin. Due to his and Ryan Kalkbrenner’s (elbow) absences, Moussa Diabaté received the starting nod on Tuesday and should retain that role for the foreseeable future. He’s worth streaming in deeper leagues. Also, Tidjane Salaün’s playing time has increased, but he has not reached the point where he should be streamed.

Mason Plumlee (groin) is out, so if Kalkbrenner is unable to go, Moussa Diabaté should earn a spot start, making him worthy of streaming on Tuesday’s busy slate.

Plumlee was limited to ten minutes before exiting with a sore right groin. With Ryan Kalkbrenner already out, the Hornets now turn to Moussa Diabaté at the center position. And when he needs a rest, the Hornets will have to go small, with either Tidjane Salaün or Miles Bridges playing center in a smaller lineup.

The Hornets are without Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) for Monday’s game, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. However, it’s Plumlee who receives the starting nod rather than Moussa Diabaté. Getting to start raises Plumlee’s ceiling, but he remains a risky play regardless of league size/format.

With Kalkbrenner sidelined due to a sprained elbow, Moussa Diabaté should be in line for a spot start, with Mason Plumlee absorbing backup center minutes.

Kalkbrenner is dealing with a sprained left elbow. The 7-foot-1 center is right-handed, however, so that may factor into whether he can play on Monday. Moussa Diabaté is the likely replacement in the starting lineup if Kalkbrenner cannot play, with Mason Plumlee picking up rotation minutes off the bench.

Initially questionable for Friday’s game, Diabaté was upgraded to probable earlier in the day. He’s now officially available to play, which will impact the Hornets’ center rotation. Mason Plumlee will likely fall out of the rotation entirely, but this does not affect fantasy basketball.
