ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Jazz acquired Josh Green from the Timberwolves for Cody Williams and John Konchar.
Acquired from the Hornets as part of the LaMelo Ball trade, Green never got to actually suit up for the Timberwolves. He appeared in 58 games for the Hornets last season, averaging 4.3 points in 15.7 minutes. While Green can be a capable perimeter defender for the Jazz, his game won’t impact fantasy...
Shams CharaniaBrandon Miller (shoulder) continues to progress in his recovery from offseason left shoulder surgery.
Miller, who missed 13 games early last season after suffering a subluxation of his left shoulder, underwent surgery in May to address instability in the area. While he still has not been fully cleared to resume basketball activities, the 6-foot-7 wing is making strides in his recovery. “It’s going g...
Charlotte ObserverTre Mann and a 2027 Clippers second-round pick have been traded to the Wizards in exchange for Cam Whitmore as part of the Peyton Watson trade.
Mann was sent to Cleveland from Charlotte as part of the Dennis Schroder trade last week, but he’ll end up back in the Southeast division. Mann has shown flashes and could compete with Bub Carrington for the backup point guard job behind Trae Young, but with the compensation that was required for th...
Shams CharaniaNBA insider Jake Fischer reports that the Hornets are “expected” to make Miles Bridges available via trade in conjunction with this month’s draft.
While there were some rumblings that Bridges could be had for the right price at the February trade deadline, the veteran forward remained in Charlotte. However, that may not be the case this summer, based on Fischer’s reporting. Bridges is going into the final year of his contract, with a $22.8 mil...
Marc Stein SubstackAccording to ESPN’s Ohm Youngmisuk, the Hornets have guaranteed Moussa Diabaté’s contract for the 2026-27 season.
After a 2025-26 season in which he won the NBA’s Hustle Award, Diabaté stands to be one of the biggest bargains in basketball next season. His contract for next season is worth just over $2.46 million, a low amount for a player who emerged as the Hornets’ starting center in 2025-26. A starter in 47 ...
Ohm YoungmisukLamelo Ball finished Friday’s loss to the Magic with 23 points (7-of-17 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), two rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers.
While Ball shot more efficiently from the field on Friday than he did in Wednesday’s win, the end result was a blowout, season-ending loss. He scored well from beyond the arc and concluded as the only Hornets player to reach the 20-point mark. Additionally, Ball was Charlotte’s only player with more...
PJ Hall (ankle) has undergone season-ending surgery to address a fractured right ankle.
Hall suffered the injury while playing for the Hornets’ G League affiliate in the first round of the league playoffs. His absence does not affect Charlotte’s frontcourt rotation, but it may affect his availability for summer league play.
Charlotte HornetsGrant Williams (knee) is out for Friday’s matchup with Indiana.
Williams will sit out against the Pacers due to right knee injury management. Sion James and Josh Green could pick up a few extra minutes, but neither of them are worth streaming.
NBA Injury ReportTidjane Salaün (calf) has been ruled out against the 76ers on Thursday.
Salaün has been sidelined for over three weeks, and there is no timeline for when he will return. Regardless, he isn’t going to play much of a role when healthy, so his continued absence won’t alter the Hornets’ rotation.
NBA Injury ReportPat Connaughton (illness) is available for Thursday’s game against the Knicks, and Liam McNeeley (illness) is out.
Neither player’s status affects fantasy basketball, but Connaughton could slide into the back end of the Hornets’ rotation. That was unlikely to be the case for McNeeley.
Charlotte HornetsLiam McNeeley (illness) is questionable for Thursday’s game against the Knicks.
McNeeley is a late addition to the Hornets’ injury report. His availability does not affect fantasy basketball, as the rookie has been out of the rotation for most of the season.
NBA Injury ReportSion James provided a boost off the bench with 13 points (5-of-8 FGs), eight rebounds, one assist, two steals and three three-pointers against the Mavericks on Tuesday.
The rookie has been solid all season, but he was able to match his career high for rebounds in this game and score in double figures for the first time since December. James has been an impressive rookie, especially for a second-round pick. However, that hasn’t led to much fantasy production. This w...
Xavier Tillman (not with team) is out for Saturday’s game against the Hawks.
Acquired from the Celtics on Thursday, Tillman has yet to join his new team. Upon arrival, he’ll give the Hornets another option in the frontcourt, but he’s unlikely to get the run needed to affect fantasy basketball.
NBA Injury ReportESPN’s Shams Charania reports that Tosan Evbuomwan has signed a two-way deal with the Hornets.
Charlotte waived KJ Simpson in a subsequent move. Evbuomwan will offer forward depth, but he’s not likely to see enough run to be worth a look in most fantasy leagues.
