Salaun is out for Friday's game against the Heat due to a left calf strain.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Out Wednesday with knee sprain
Salaun has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Boston due to a left knee sprain.
After being recalled from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Tuesday, Salaun checked into Wednesday's 117-90 win over Dallas in garbage time but was subbed out of the contest after playing just one minute and 17 seconds. The knee injury was presumably the cause of Salaun's departure, and he'll now be sidelined for the second leg of the back-to-back set.

The Hornets recalled Salaun from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Tuesday.
With Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabate facing potential suspensions after being ejected following a brawl that broke out during Monday's 110-104 loss to Detroit, Salaun will be called up to provide reinforcement in the frontcourt. Expect the second-year player to be included in the rotation in Wednesday's game against the Hawks.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Cleared to return Saturday
Salaun (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Hawks.
Salaun was unable to play against the Rockets on Thursday while battling through an illness, but it appears the second-year has progressed enough to be available for Saturday's contest. He's averaging 16.0 minutes per game off the bench this season, though he's seen less playing time at the NBA level of late while getting more reps in the G League with the Greensboro Swarm.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Iffy for Saturday
Salaun is questionable for Saturday's game against the Hawks with an illness.
The Hornets are likely to check back in with the second-year forward closer to Saturday's tipoff. Regardless of whether Salaun is available, his status doesn't appear to shake up the Charlotte frontcourt rotation.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Won't play Thursday
Salaun (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game in Houston.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Good to go
Salaun (Achilles) is available for Wednesday's game against Cleveland.
Salaun was previously considered probable for Wednesday's contest, so his availability doesn't come as much of a surprise. Salaun is coming off his first double-double of the season, as he logged 13 points and 11 rebounds across 22 minutes.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Probable for Wednesday
Salaun is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers due to left Achilles tendinopathy.
The Achilles issue is a new concern for Salaun, though he's still likely to suit up in the front end of this back-to-back set. The second-year forward has appeared in eight outings this month, during which he has averaged 5.0 points and 4.8 rebounds in 15.1 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Posts double-double in win
Salaun finished with 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one block in 22 minutes during Sunday's 110-87 victory over Denver.
Salaun added 13 points and led the team with 11 rebounds off the bench in Sunday's win over the Nuggets. It marked the 20-year-old forward's first double-double this season and third of his career. Salaun has been a fairly steady part of Charlotte's rotation since being recalled from the G League at the start of December, averaging 7.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.1 threes, 1.0 assists and 0.4 steals in 17.9 minutes per game across 21 contests.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Falls out of rotation
Salaun (coach's decision) didn't appear off the bench Monday in the Hornets' 117-109 loss to the Clippers.
After being recalled from the G League's Greensboro Swarm in late November, Salaun had emerged as a regular part of the Charlotte rotation. From Dec. 1 through this past weekend, Salaun had appeared in 18 of 19 games and averaged 7.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.2 three-pointers and 0.9 assists in 18.6 minutes per contest, with his only absence during that stretch being the result of a sore left ankle. However, with Grant Williams now back to full health after missing the start of the season while recovering from knee surgery, the Hornets no longer appear to have room on the second unit for Salaun. If playing time continues to be hard to come by for the second-year forward over the next handful of games, Salaun could be sent back to Greensboro in order to pick up steady minutes.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Good to go Saturday
Salaun is available to play in Saturday's game against the Jazz.
Salaun was considered probable for Saturday's game due to a sprained left ankle. Since the start of December, Salaun has averaged 19.0 minutes per game. With Grant Williams (knee) and Ryan Kalkbrenner (elbow) now healthy, though, Salaun could see his minutes drop going forward.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Likely to play Saturday
Salaun is probable for Saturday's game against the Jazz due to a left ankle sprain.
Salaun has now drawn four probable tags in a row, suggesting the sprain remains of minimal concern. It sounds like Grant Williams (knee) is primed to make his season debut, which could adversely affect Salaun's playing time. Over his last five appearances, Salaun has averaged 5.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 0.6 assists in 17.2 minutes per game while shooting 52.6 percent from the field.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Available to play
Salaun (ankle) is available to play Thursday versus the Pacers.
Salaun will continue to play through the ankle issue, and he should see minutes in the teens off the bench. Salaun is averaging 6.6 points and 4.3 rebounds per game this season.
... See More ... See Less -
Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Probable for Thursday
Salaun is probable for Thursday's game against Indiana with a left ankle sprain.
Salaun was also probable for Wednesday's game against Toronto, in which he finished with four points and six rebounds in 21 minutes. He's unlikely to see a big role Thursday with Brandon Miller returning from a one-game absence.
