Hornets' Collin Sexton: Team's leading scorer off bench
Rotowire
Sexton tallied 22 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and two rebounds over 24 minutes during the Hornets' 97-96 loss to the Raptors on Wednesday.
Sexton ended up leading the Hornets in points during Wednesday's low-scoring affair, as no other Charlotte player scored more than 15 points during the loss. It was the fifth time he scored 20-plus points in a game and the first time doing so since Nov. 28 against the Bulls. In his eight outings since returning from a seven-game absence due to a left quadriceps strain, Sexton has averaged 14.8 points, 3.8 assists, 1.5 rebounds, 1.5 threes and 0.9 steals over 21.9 minutes per game.

Sexton will return to the second unit for this contest. He's averaging 14.9 points per game when deployed off the bench, so he should still have some upside in most formats.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Starting sans Bridges
Rotowire
Sexton will start against the Warriors on Wednesday, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
With Miles Bridges (ankle) sidelined, Sexton will get the starting nod for the first time since Nov. 23. In 10 starts so far this season, the 26-year-old guard has averaged 15.9 points, 5.3 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 29.3 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Drops 13 points in win
Rotowire
Sexton totaled 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-3 3Pt) and two assists in 18 minutes during Friday's 120-105 victory over Orlando.
Sexton ended with at least 12 points for the second straight game, adding basically nothing when it comes to peripheral numbers. While his overall production continues to be disappointing, the bigger takeaway here was the fact that Kon Knueppel was unable to finish the game after suffering an ankle injury. If the rookie is forced to miss time, Sexton could be in line for some additional minutes, making him a speculative add, even in 12-team leagues.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Scores 12 points in return
Rotowire
Sexton recorded 12 points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound, two assists and one block over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 126-109 win over the Wizards.
Sexton was cleared to return Tuesday from a seven-game absence due to a left quad strain. He failed to reach the 20-minute benchmark in his return, but he managed to reach double-digit points while doing most of his work from the charity stripe. The Hornets don't play until Friday against the Magic, which gives Sexton more time to work on his conditioning in anticipation of taking on more minutes off the bench.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Available vs. Wizards

Sexton (quadriceps) is available for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.
After missing seven straight outings with a left quad strain, the veteran guard has been cleared to suit up. Sexton has averaged 15.2 points, 3.6 assists and 2.2 rebounds in 24.5 minutes per contest over his last 13 games. Sion James could see fewer minutes Tuesday with Sexton back in action.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Downgraded to out Monday
Rotowire
Sexton (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Cleveland.
This will mark Sexton's seventh consecutive absence due to his quad injury, and there is no clear timetable for his return. However, he appears to be trending in the right direction after receiving doubtful tags ahead of the past two contests. Josh Green and Sion James may see extended run Monday as a result.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Doubtful for Monday
Rotowire
Sexton (quadriceps) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Sexton appears likely to miss a seventh straight game Monday, and he can be considered highly questionable for the second leg of the back-to-back set Tuesday against the Wizards. Sexton was on a roll to start the campaign, averaging 16.1 points and 4.3 assists in 26.1 minutes, but most of that production came with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined.

Rotowire
Sexton (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Detroit.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Unlikely to play Saturday
Rotowire
Sexton (quadriceps) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Pistons.
Sexton is likely to miss his sixth consecutive contest due to a left quadriceps strain. On a more positive note, this marks the first time he has initially been ruled as doubtful instead of out since sustaining the injury. If he's ultimately ruled out, Sion James, Tre Mann (knee) and KJ Simpson are candidates for increased playing time.

Sexton is out for Thursday's game against the Hawks due to a left quadriceps strain.
Thursday's contest will mark a fifth straight on the shelf for Sexton, whose next opportunity to hit the court arrives Saturday in Detroit. With Tre Mann (knee) also out, Sion James is worth streaming in shallow fantasy leagues and KJ Simpson in deeper formats.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Out again Sunday
Rotowire
Sexton (thigh) will not play Sunday against the Nuggets.
Sexton will miss a second straight game, and it's not a great sign for his fantasy managers that he's being ruled out a day in advance. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Tre Mann (knee) also out, the Hornets will likely use a committee approach to soak up the backcourt minutes.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Out for Friday
Rotowire
Sexton has been ruled out for Friday's game in Toronto due to a left thigh strain.
The Hornets initially labeled Sexton's injury a knee contusion after he was forced out of Wednesday's game, but his injury has now been updated to a thigh strain. His absence from the active roster should open up some minutes for KJ Simpson, Antonio Reeves and Liam McNeeley. For now, Sexton should be considered questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Nuggets.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Won't return Wednesday
Rotowire
Sexton won't return to Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to a left knee contusion.
Sexton played nine minutes before leaving this game for good during the second half. He finished with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists and one block. If he misses additional time, the Hornets could turn to Antonio Reeves and Sion James.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Instant offense off bench
Rotowire
Sexton logged 15 points (5-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Monday's 116-103 loss to the Nets.
With Brandon Miller (shoulder) and Tre Mann (ankle) both in street clothes Monday, Sexton scored an efficient 15 points off the bench but didn't see a rise in playing time. The veteran guard is a fine low-end option in points leagues, but his high turnover rate and lack of contributions across the board severely limit his effectiveness in category-based leagues. Sexton has averaged 16.1 points, 4.4 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 2.6 turnovers per contest in 20 games this season.
