Hornets' Grant Williams: Off injury report
Williams (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Spurs.
Williams sat out of the second leg of the Hornets' back-to-back set Thursday against the Mavericks for maintenance purposes, but the veteran forward has been cleared to play in Saturday's contest. He was cleared to return Jan. 10 after fully progressing from a torn ACL in his right knee he sustained in December 2024, and since returning he is averaging 4.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 17.4 minutes per game.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Sets new career-high scoring mark
Knueppel totaled 34 points (10-16 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 win over the Mavericks.
Cooper Flagg remains the best rookie in this year's class, but Knueppel has been better than advertised and has emerged as a key player for the Hornets already. This 34-point output was Knueppel's highest-scoring output of his career, and the eight three-pointers were also a career-best mark. Knueppel is averaging 18.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.8 three-pointers made per game since the beginning of January while making 42.3 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc over that stretch.

Hornets' LaMelo Ball: Sniffs double-double
Ball ended with 22 points (8-17 FG, 6-10 3Pt), three rebounds, nine assists and one block over 31 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 win over Dallas.
Ball was locked in from three-point range and drained at least six threes for the seventh time this season, and he ended just one assist away from recording what would've been his third double-double of the month. Ball has been productive all season long, and his January numbers have been quite solid, but there's been some regression compared to the numbers he'd been posting in recent months. Over 16 games in January, he's averaging 17.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 6.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 3.5 three-pointers made. To put things into context, he was averaging 20.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 8.3 assists per game between October and December.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Extends scoring run
Miller accumulated 23 points (7-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one block in 27 minutes during Thursday's 123-121 win over the Mavericks.
Miller reached the 20-point mark for the ninth straight game, and he continues to be one of the most reliable offensive weapons for a rising Hornets team that has won four of its last five contests. Over that nine-game stretch, Miller is averaging a solid line of 24.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 3.6 three-pointers made per game.

Miller (ankle) has been cleared to play Thursday against the Mavericks.
As anticipated, Miller has received the green light to take the court for Thursday's clash. He's put up 20 or more points in eight straight games and is averaging 24.8 points on 53.9 percent shooting from the field over that stretch.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Resting Thursday
Williams will be rested Thursday against the Mavericks.
Williams will be held out for injury management during the second leg of this back-to-back set. Williams has eight appearances to his name this season with 4.9 points and 3.4 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Probable for Thursday
Miller (ankle) is probable for Thursday's game against the Mavericks.
The Hornets are generally cautious with Miller, but for now the plan is for him to suit up in the second leg of this back-to-back set. During Wednesday's win over the Grizzlies, Miller finished with 26 points (9-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and three assists across 30 minutes.

Hornets' Brandon Miller: Continues scoring tear
Miller closed Wednesday's 112-97 win over the Grizzlies with 26 points (9-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and three assists across 30 minutes.
The third-year man from Alabama has now scored 20 or more points in eight consecutive games. In that span, he's averaging 24.8 points per game. The recent burst has increased his scoring average for the season to 20.5 points per game. Charlotte has four players averaging at least 18 points this season, and that might be sustainable, especially if they continue to win games and climb the standings.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Gets back on track
Bridges registered 20 points (8-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds and three assists over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 112-97 win over the Grizzlies.
Bridges entered Wednesday's game averaging just 11.8 points in his past six contests, including two single-digit scoring efforts. He appears to be back on track now after scoring 20 points for the second time in his past three games. He also sank four threes against Memphis as the Hornets won comfortably.

Hornets' Sion James: Limited impact in win
James accumulated five points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists over 22 minutes during Wednesday's 112-97 win over Memphis.
Although James continues to see decent workloads for the Hornets, his impact in fantasy hoops has been minimal. Over his last four games, he's seeing 19.3 minutes per contest with 4.5 points, 2.9 rebounds and 2.0 assists while shooting 33.3 percent from the field.

Hornets' Ryan Kalkbrenner: Quiet outing in win
Kalkbrenner closed Wednesday's 112-97 victory over the Grizzlies with six points (3-3 FG) and four rebounds in 15 minutes.
With Moussa Diabate thriving in Charlotte, Kalkbrenner's upside may be capped in the short term. Over the rookie's last four games, the center has averaged 21.0 minutes per contest with 9.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 1.3 blocks in 21.0 minutes per contest. In that same stretch, Diabate has averaged a double-double in 25.3 minutes per game.

Hornets' LaMelo Ball: Notches 16 points in win
Ball amassed 16 points (6-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt), one rebound, four assists and two steals in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 112-97 victory over the Grizzlies.
The Hornets are on a four-game winning streak with a 20-28 record as they make a push for a playoff spot. That significantly improves Ball's fantasy outlook down the stretch, as he would be playing in meaningful games, unlike previous seasons. With Ball logging just 23 minutes Wednesday, it's expected that he will see a slightly larger workload Thursday against Dallas for the second leg of this back-to-back set.

Hornets' Moussa Diabate: Massive double-double in win
Diabate provided 18 points (8-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 19 rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block across 33 minutes in Wednesday's 112-97 win over the Grizzlies.
Diabate stuffed the stat sheet and finished as Charlotte's third-leading scorer, posting double-digit points for a fourth straight game. The big man also impressed on the glass, grabbing a game- and career-high 19 boards en route to his 12th double-double on the campaign. He has racked up two double-doubles in his last three appearances and four this month.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Excellent rookie campaign continues
Knueppel finished Monday's 130-93 win over the 76ers with 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt), eight rebounds, six assists and two steals across 20 minutes.
The rookie first-rounder is regarded for his sharpshooting ability, but he also showed off his playmaking skills Monday. Over his last eight appearances, Knueppel has averaged 17.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.1 three-pointers in 29.4 minutes per game.
