Rotoworld Player News

Josh Green

CHA Guard #10

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Josh Green (Achilles) is available for Saturday’s game against the Spurs.

Green was initially listed as probable for Saturday’s game, so the upgrade was expected. While he’ll be part of the rotation due to his defense, the 2020 first-round pick is unlikely to affect fantasy basketball.
Grant Williams

CHA Forward #2

Grant Williams (knee) is not on the injury report against the Spurs on Satruday.

Williams missed Thursday’s game, but he will return to take on San Antonio. That was the second night of a back-to-back, so it isn’t surprising that he was out after missing over a year of games. He’ll be back playing a reserve role down low, which hasn’t yielded much fantasy production.
Josh Green

CHA Guard #10

Josh Green (Achilles) is probable to play against the Spurs on Saturday.

Green has popped up on the injury report with an Achilles issue, but it isn’t expected to keep him on the sidelines. This game has been moved up from 3 p.m. eastern to noon eastern due to expected inclement weather, so fantasy managers should adjust their lineups earlier than usual.
Miles Bridges

CHA Forward #0

Miles Bridges posted a full line on Thursday with 17 points (7-of-17 FGs), eight rebounds, eight assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer against the Mavericks.

Bridges has had some rough performances in January, but this was a solid one. He came close to recording a triple-double, and he was able to contribute on the defensive end, which he hasn’t been able to do often this year. He had shot better than 50 percent in three straight games prior to this one, and he’ll look to get back to his hot shooting ways against the Spurs on Saturday.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller finished with 23 points (7-of-13 FGs), six rebounds, two assists, one block and three three-pointers on Thursday against the Mavericks.

Miller’s start to the season wasn’t pretty, but he has flipped the switch recently. This was his ninth straight game with at least 20 points, and he has shot at least 50 percent from the floor in five straight games. This wasn’t his best performance of the stretch, but he has been on another level offensively, which has led to elite production for fantasy managers. He’ll look to stay hot against the Spurs on Saturday to wrap up the week.
Kon Knueppel

CHA Guard-Forward #7

Kon Knueppel led the Hornets with 34 points (10-of-16 FGs), four rebounds, three assists, one steal and eight three-pointers in a 123-121 win over the Mavericks on Thursday.

Knueppel may not have been able to match his former teammate Cooper Flagg’s 49 points, but his performance was still strong. He set career highs for both points and three-pointers and was incredibly efficient while doing it. Not many perimeter-oriented rookies are as efficient as Knueppel has been this season, which has allowed him to make a big impact in fantasy basketball. He’ll look to carry this hot shooting into Saturday’s matchup with the Spurs.
Grant Williams

CHA Forward #2

Grant Williams is out for Thursday’s game against the Mavericks with right knee injury management.

The Hornets have been cautious with Williams as he returns from offseason knee surgery. He’s averaging just under 19 minutes per game over the last two weeks, so his role isn’t a huge one to fill. Charlotte will likely give more minutes to Tidjane Salaun.
Brandon Miller

CHA Forward #24

Brandon Miller logged 26 points (9-of-17 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), one rebound, three assists and four three-pointers in the win over the Grizzlies on Wednesday.

Miller’s stellar play continued on Wednesday. He was great from behind the three-point line and used his production there to help extend his streak of double-digit scoring performances to eight games. The third-year forward wasn’t a major contributor across any other statistical category, but his recent run as a scorer should leave many optimistic about what his future could look like.
Moussa Diabaté

CHA Forward #14

Moussa Diabaté amassed 18 points (8-of-9 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), 19 rebounds, two assists, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in the in over the Grizzlies on Wednesday.

Diabaté did a little bit of everything for the Hornets in what ended up being arguably his best game as an NBA player. He was accurate from the floor in his 33 minutes of game action and all over the glass, leaving him just shy of a 20-point, 20-rebound performance. Additionally, the fourth-year center provided fantasy managers with a few stocks, helping boost his final stat line in the win. Diabaté continues to play well for Charlotte.
Miles Bridges

CHA Forward #0

Miles Bridges tallied 20 points (8-of-11 FGs), six rebounds, three assists, and four three-pointers in the win over the Grizzlies on Wednesday.

Bridges played just 28 minutes on Wednesday and, despite not generating many shot attempts, he scored efficiently and finished as one of two starters to log 20 or more points. More than half of his scoring production came from beyond the arc, which keyed his success on the offensive end of the floor. The veteran forward did a little bit on the glass, but not too much else in this game. He’ll next take the floor against the Mavericks on Thursday.
