Back on injury report Miller (glute) is questionable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact In his return from a four-game absence due to the left glute strain he suffered in the Hornets' Oct. 23 season opener, Miller wasn't operating with many restrictions, as he narrowly edged out Miles Bridges for third on the team in playing time behind LaMelo Ball (37 minutes) and Grant Williams (34 minutes). Miller inflicted damage on fantasy managers' percentages in his second appearance of the season, but his 26.8 percent usage rate and strong contributions across the stat sheet were encouraging takeaways. In his second season, Miller could be primed to usurp Bridges as the Hornets' No. 2 option behind Ball.
