Frank Ntilikina - Still sidelinedNtilikina (lower leg) won't play in Thursday's game against the Lakers.
Gordon Hayward - Inactive ThursdayHayward (calf) won't play in Thursday's game against the Lakers.
ImpactHayward exited Tuesday's contest with a strained left calf and he'll end up missing Thursday's tilt due to the matter. With Thursday's contest being the first of a back-to-back, Hayward won't have much time to rest before Charlotte's game against the Suns on Friday. In the meantime, expect Cody Martin and Bryce McGowens to pick up some extra minutes.

Brandon Miller - Tabbed questionableMiller (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Lakers.
ImpactMiller missed Charlotte's last contest due to a sprained right ankle and is at risk of missing another game. Considering Thursday's tilt is the opening leg of a back-to-back set, the Hornets could opt to play it safe with the second overall pick. If he does end up sitting, Bryce McGowens and Cody Martin are the likely candidates to pick up Millers' vacated minutes.
