Rotoworld Player News

Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Kon Knueppel (hamstring) has been upgraded to available to play against the Nets on Wednesday.

Knueppel missed the first eight games of the season, but he’ll be able to suit up against Brooklyn. It’s worth noting that Coby White (calf) made his season debut in Charlotte’s last game and played 16 minutes as a starter. The lopsided score could have been a factor, but the expectation should be that Knueppel replaces Sion James as a starter, though he likely plays a small role in this game. Grayson Allen will likely lose out on minutes with Knueppel back.
Coby White

CHA Guard #3

Coby White (calf) is probable for Wednesday’s game against the Nets.

White made his season debut in Monday’s loss to the Pistons. Although he started, the Hornets limited him to 16 minutes. Fantasy managers should anticipate a similar workload if White plays on Wednesday.
Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Kon Knueppel (hamstring) is probable for Wednesday’s game against the Nets.

Based on the probable tag, Knueppel’s season debut is approaching. If he can play Wednesday, Sion James may head to the bench, even if the Hornets limit Knueppel’s minutes. Despite his own minutes restriction, Coby White started his season debut on Monday against the Pistons and played 16 minutes.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller had 17 points (7-of-18 FGs), one rebound, four assists and three three-pointers against the Pistons on Monday.

Miller had scored at least 24 points in four of his last five games entering play Monday. The Pistons held him in check and the Hornets lost by 33 at home. Charlotte will have a much easier test against the Nets on the road Wednesday.
Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Kon Knueppel (hamstring) is out for Monday’s game against the Pistons.

While Knueppel is close to making his season debut, he isn’t ready yet. Sion James is likely to remain in the starting lineup until last season’s Rookie of the Year runner-up is cleared to play without restrictions.
Coby White

CHA Guard #3

Coby White (calf) is not on the injury report for Monday’s game against the Pistons.

Injured just before the preseason began, White is available to make his season debut on Monday. Given the time he missed, he’ll likely have a minutes restriction. Dennis Schröder has served as the starting point guard, but that may change once White is up to speed.
Naz Reid

CHA Center-Forward #0

Naz Reid recorded 14 points (4-of-12 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), five rebounds, two assists and one block in Saturday’s loss to the 76ers.

Reid has been in a bit of a funk since Charlotte’s October 24 win over the Heat. Over his last four games, the Hornets’ forward has shot 35.1 percent from the field and 21.7 percent from beyond the arc while averaging 12.8 points per game. That’s not the production fantasy managers were hoping for, especially as the Hornets continue to play without Coby White and Kon Knueppel. Hopefully, Reid can turn things around next week, with the Hornets hosting the Pistons on Monday.
Grayson Allen

CHA Guard #8

Grayson Allen accounted for 27 points (9-of-12 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and seven three-pointers in Saturday’s loss to the 76ers.

After scoring 14 points on 4-of-18 shooting in Charlotte’s prior two games, Allen needed a night like Saturday. He shot a stellar 7-of-10 from beyond the arc, including 3-of-3 in an 11-point first quarter. The 27 points are a new season-high for Allen, who scored 20 or more in two of Charlotte’s first three games. He’ll have a higher fantasy ceiling until Coby White and Kon Knueppel are cleared to return from their injuries.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller finished Saturday’s loss to the 76ers with 24 points (8-of-20 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), five rebounds, five assists, two steals, one block and five three-pointers.

Miller shot the ball better than he did in Friday’s loss to the Wizards, when he finished 7-of-24 from the field. This season, he’s shooting 37.7 percent from the field, nearly six percentage points lower than last season (43.5). Hopefully, the eventual returns of Coby White and Kon Knueppel will make things a bit easier for Miller by improving the quality of shots he gets in Charlotte’s offense. The Hornets play three games next week, starting with the Pistons on Monday.
Naz Reid

CHA Center-Forward #0

Naz Reid scored 12 points (5-of-17 FGs, 0-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, an assist, three steals, and two 3-pointers in 31 minutes.

Naz Reid got the start after being benched in the second half of last game, but it looks to be a one game thing. While he didn’t fill up the box score, he still filled up the box score despite it, but it wasn’t a good performance from the Hornets as a whole. If you have Naz, be patient and don’t overreact. He won’t likely go shoot 29.4% from the field and 25% from three very often.
