Impact Ball's status heading into Monday's matchup was murky as he dealt with a non-COVID illness. The Hornets announced just before tipoff that the 21-year-old would be available in spite of his absence from the starting five, but he didn't appear in the win. His next chance to return will be Wednesday against the Celtics, while Cody Martin could draw another start if Ball remains sidelined.
