• Hornets' Brandon Miller: Won't return Monday

  20H ago • By RotoWire

  Miller exited Monday's game against the 76ers during the fourth quarter with a sprained right ankle and won't return, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. He'll finish the game with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block across 31 minutes. Miller limped to the locker room with 8:20 remaining in the matchup after an awkward landing on a fastbreak layup. With the second-year pro unable to return in the final quarter, Tidjane Salaun and Cody Martin will likely pick up the slack the rest of the way.

  Miller accumulated 26 points (9-18 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one block in 40 minutes during Sunday's 113-109 victory over Indiana. Miller continues to shoulder a heavy workload, especially on the offensive end without the help of LaMelo Ball (calf) and Miles Bridges (knee). He led Charlotte in scoring and put together a solid shooting line, and he's now poured in 25 or more points in five straight appearances.

• Hornets' Brandon Miller: Scores team-high 25 points

  Miller totaled 25 points (7-21 FG, 3-13 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's 116-102 loss to the Cavaliers. Miller had a rough shooting performance, but given the Hornets were missing several key pieces on offense, the second-year star had the green light to carry the offense and took as many shots as he saw fit. Despite the lack of efficiency, fantasy managers should be happy with Miller's overall stat line, and he'll continue to enjoy an uptick in usage as long as the Hornets remain depleted. Miller has scored at least 25 points in four straight contests and has reached the 20-point mark in 10 games in a row.

• Hornets' Brandon Miller: Scores 26 points in loss

  Miller chipped in 26 points (9-19 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists over 30 minutes during Thursday's 125-101 loss to New York. Miller is doing everything he can to carry the Hornets on offense amid the absence of LaMelo Ball (calf), but it hasn't been enough. Despite the team's struggles, Miller has been a solid fantasy option in most formats, and he's the undisputed go-to player for Charlotte with Ball sidelined. The second-year guard has scored at least 20 points in nine games in a row, averaging 28.0 points per game and shooting 44.3 percent from the floor in that span.
