• Hornets' Moussa Diabate: Goes scoreless in loss

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Diabate produced three rebounds across nine minutes during Monday's 115-108 overtime loss to Chicago. Diabate continues to play a muted role off the bench, typically serving as the third-string center behind Mark Williams and Nick Richards. Despite being one of the better offensive rebounders in the league, Diabate's offensive game is basically non-existent. Barring injuries to either Williams or Richards, Diabate is unlikely to step into a meaningful role any time soon.

  Diabate produced seven points (2-4 FG, 3-4 FT) and seven rebounds in 18 minutes during Friday's 108-98 loss to Philadelphia.

• Hornets' Moussa Diabate: Still out Sunday

  12/08/2024 • By RotoWire

  Diabate (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers. An illness will cost Diabate both halves of Charlotte's weekend back-to-back set. He should have plenty of time to recover before attempting to suit up Friday in Chicago. Mark Williams has been limited off the bench since making his season debut, while Nick Richards is nursing an ankle injury, so Taj Gibson is a candidate for playing time in Diabate's absence.
