The Hornets announced Saturday that Josh Okogie (hamstring) will be evaluated in three weeks.
Okogie injured his left hamstring during the third quarter of Friday’s loss to the Clippers. Further examination revealed a strain, and he will be re-evaluated in three weeks. In the short term, Okogie’s absence will free up minutes for DaQuan Jeffries. However, it’s possible that lottery pick Tidjane Salaun, who has been in the G League recently, will play more after the All-Star break.
