Devonte' Graham - Active Wednesday Graham (toe) is active Wednesday against Detroit.
Impact Despite nursing a right toe sprain, Graham will be available presumably off the bench for the Hornets once again. The guard has averaged 5.8 points and 2.2 assists in 23 previous appearances.

Herbert Jones - Won't suit up Wednesday Jones (ankle) will not play in Wednesday's game versus the Pistons.
Impact Jones' doubtful designation on the initial injury report had him trending in this direction anyway, but Jones will officially miss his third straight contest Wednesday. His next chance to suit up arrives Friday against the Suns. Meanwhile, Dyson Daniels will likely line up for another start.

Brandon Ingram - Won't play Wednesday Ingram (toe) won't suit up for Wednesday's game versus the Pistons, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Ingram didn't participate in practice Tuesday, foreshadowing his absence for a fifth straight contest Wednesday. With that game off the table, Ingram's next opportunity to retake the floor surfaces Friday versus the Suns.

Herbert Jones - Likely out versus Detroit Jones (ankle) is Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com for Wednesday's game against the Pistons.
Impact Jones is set to miss his third straight game Wednesday due to a left ankle sprain. Dyson Daniels, Trey Murphy and Naji Marshall should continue to see extended minutes in his absence. Jones' next chance to play is Friday's game against Phoenix if he can't go versus the Pistons.

Devonte' Graham - Questionable to play Wednesday Graham is considered a question mark to play Wednesday versus the Pistons due to a right big toe sprain, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Graham remains a consistent contributor in the backcourt for New Orleans and has recently seen an uptick in playing time with Brandon Ingram (toe) sidelined. His status for Wednesday should be clarified ahead of Wednesday's opening tip, but another absence from Graham could leave the Pelicans further shorthanded.

Herbert Jones - No practice participation Tuesday Jones (ankle) didn't practice Tuesday, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Jones has missed the last two games and seems to be trending toward a third straight absence Wednesday based on his level of practice participation. The team should provide more clarity on that front later in the day Tuesday when it releases the injury report.
DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Brandon Ingram - Skips practice Tuesday Ingram (toe) didn't partake in Tuesday's practice session, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Ingram hasn't played in four straight games since suffering a toe sprain Nov. 25 versus the Grizzlies. His absence from Tuesday's practice certainly doesn't present much optimism he will rejoin the action Wednesday, though the injury report released later in the day should provide a better evaluation of his potential availability.
