Rotoworld Player News

Coby White

CHA Guard #3

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Coby White led the Hornets with 21 points (8-of-16 FGs), three rebounds, three assists and two three-pointers in a 101-96 loss to the Suns on Thursday.

It has taken White some time to get going after missing the start of the year, and he’s still on a minutes restriction, but he was able to have his highest scoring performance of the season in this game. Despite playing less than 20 minutes, White led Charlotte in scoring in what was his best game of the season. Hopefully his role will increase as the season progresses, but he is already starting to tick up his production.
Grant Williams

CHA Forward #2

Grant Williams made his season debut on Thursday and contributed 11 points (3-of-5 FGs), two rebounds, one assist, one block and two three-pointers against the Suns.

Suiting up for the first time this season after missing the start of the year with a hamstring strain, Williams was able to make an impact immediately. Despite playing just 16 minutes, Williams was able to space the floor and score in double figures. They also outscored the Suns by 11 points when he was on the floor, which was the best mark on the team by far. Williams isn’t a standard-league option, but he is a solid depth piece for Charlotte.
Christian Anderson

CHA Guard #5

Christian Anderson Jr. provided a boost off the bench with 13 points (4-of-9 FGs), two assists and three three-pointers against the Suns on Thursday.

It has been a rough start to Anderson’s career, but he was able to get some offense going in this one. He set a new career high for scoring, and he has knocked down three triples in two straight games. One of the best shooters in the draft, it is good to see Anderson start to get things going on offense. He isn’t worth rostering in redraft leagues, but he is worth stashing in dynasty formats.
Moussa Diabaté

CHA Forward #14

Moussa Diabaté (quad) is available for Thursday’s matchup with the Suns.

Diabaté will return from a two-game absence, and he should reclaim his starting job. That should mean fewer minutes for Ryan Kalkbrenner and Hannes Steinbach.
Grant Williams

CHA Forward #2

Grant Williams (hamstring) will make his season debut Thursday against the Suns.

Given Charlotte’s multiple injuries, Williams may not have the luxury of being eased back into action. He’s not a guy to get into fantasy lineups right away, but managers in deeper leagues should keep an eye on his workload.
Grant Williams

CHA Forward #2

Grant Williams (hamstring) is probable for Thursday’s game against the Suns.

Williams could make his first appearance of the season on Thursday. While he doesn’t play the same position as Kon Knueppel (hamstring) or Brandon Miller (hip), Williams’ return would give the Hornets much-needed depth in the frontcourt.
Moussa Diabaté

CHA Forward #14

Moussa Diabaté (quad) is probable for Thursday’s game against the Suns.

Diabaté is on track to play Thursday night after missing the Hornets’ last two games with a quad injury. If so, his return would bump Ryan Kalkbrenner to the bench.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller (hip) is out for Thursday’s game against the Suns.

Miller will miss a second straight game as he recovers from a strained right hip. Sion James started Monday’s win over the Cavaliers and should continue to do so until Miller returns.
Ryan Kalkbrenner

CHA Center #11

Ryan Kalkbrenner tallied eight points (4-of-7 FGs), 15 rebounds, three assists, two steals and three blocks in Monday’s win over the Cavaliers.

Despite the low point total, Kalkbrenner was dominant on Monday night. Ten of his 15 rebounds came on the offensive end of the floor, and those extra opportunities helped the Hornets put up 124 points. The 7-foot-1 center, once again starting for the injured Moussa Diabaté, also recorded three assists and five defensive contributions. Kalkbrenner is worth rostering as long as the Hornets are without Diabaté.
Tidjane Salaün

CHA Forward #31

Tidjane Salaün recorded 14 points (4-of-6 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), three rebounds, one steal and three three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Cavaliers.

Salaün was one of the stories of the first half on Monday, as he shot 4-of-4 from the field and 3-of-3 from the foul line, scoring 14 points. He didn’t provide any offensive value after halftime, but the first half was one of the best halves of basketball that Salaün has played in his NBA career. He should still only be rostered in dynasty leagues, but Salaün has scored in double figures in two straight games.
