Erupts for season-high 39 points Rozier accumulated 39 points (15-29 FG, 6-15 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 138-109 win over Milwaukee.

Impact Rozier finally broke through Friday, pouring in a season-high 39 points against the Bucks. In one of the more curious games this season, the Hornets were in control from the outset, with Rozier leading from the front. While his numbers have been more than adequate this season, Rozier's efficiency has been a major sticking point for managers. This is undoubtedly a step in the right direction and something that can hopefully propel him back into the top 50 moving forward.

Drops 21 in Wednesday's loss Rozier amassed 21 points (7-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 131-107 loss to the Grizzlies.

Impact The Hornets' backcourt of Rozier and LaMelo Ball did just fine against the Southwest Division-leading Grizzlies, but the same can't be said for the rest of the lineup. Rozier has been his usual productive self since missing two games in late December with a minor hip issue, averaging 17.6 points, 4.7 assists, 3.6 boards and 2.0 threes over the last seven contests.

Late scoring binge falls short Rozier accumulated 27 points (11-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 35 minutes during Monday's 121-115 loss to the Lakers.

Impact Rozier appeared headed for a quiet game through three quarters before pouring in 17 points in the final period as Charlotte mounted a spirited rally. The Lakers managed to hold on, but it was nonetheless an impressive performance by Rozier, who finished with his highest point total since Dec. 7. The veteran guard also snapped a poor shooting stretch -- coming into Monday, he had shot just 28.3 percent from the field over his previous four contests.

Woeful shooting in Monday's loss Rozier accumulated seven points (2-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and six assists across 37 minutes during Monday's 124-113 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Impact Rozier was ice cold in the loss, shooting a woeful 2-of-17 from the floor. This performance really sums up Rozier's season thus far, highlighting his struggles from the field. He currently sits outside the top 150 in standard formats, basically due to the fact he is shooting under 40 percent from the field. He clearly remains a must-roster player, but if his manager is battling to stay alive in the standings, throwing out a low-ball offer is certainly a viable strategy.

Scores 23 points in return Rozier provided 23 points (9-15 FG, 5-8 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes during Friday's 134-130 win over the Lakers.

Impact Rozier returned to action with a superb shooting performance, draining five three-pointers in eight attempts beyond the arc. The standout guard played 38 minutes and showed no lingering effects from his previous hip injury, which sidelined him for two games. Although LaMelo Ball's return has provided a much-needed spark, Rozier is an integral part of Charlotte's offensive game plan and should be rostered in all fantasy formats.

Will play Friday Rozier (hip) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers.

Impact Rozier is available and will presumably reclaim his spot in the starting lineup following a two-game absence due to a hip injury. Before his injury, Rozier had scored at least 20 points in nine of his past 10 appearances, posting 23.4 points and 6.0 assists during that stretch.

Game-time call Friday Rozier (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact Boone notes that Rozier was able to participate in practice Thursday after missing time with a bruised hip. The team should have a better idea of his availability following morning shootaround.

Won't play Wednesday Rozier (hip) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact Rozier will miss a second straight contest with an ailing right hip bruise which he suffered during Sunday's loss to Denver. Kelly Oubre, who started in place of Rozier on Monday, will presumably garner a second consecutive start. The Louisville product will presumably be tabbed questionable heading into the team's next contest against the Lakers on Friday.

Unlikely to play Wednesday Rozier (hip) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact Rozier is on the verge of missing his second straight contest with a right hip bruise. If that's indeed the case, Kelly Oubre will presumably garner a second consecutive start Wednesday versus the Clippers.

Officially out Monday Rozier (hip) is out for Monday's contest against the Kings.

Impact After exiting Charlotte's previous contest early, Rozier is officially out Monday. This will mark the Louisville product's ninth missed contest of the season. Rozier's next chance to rejoin the Hornets' lineup comes Wednesday against the Clippers.

Game-time decision Monday Rozier (hip) is a game-time decision for Monday's contest against the Kings, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

Impact Rozier exited without returning due to a hip injury during Charlotte's previous contest, but the 28-year-old appears to have a chance at suiting up Monday. If Rozier is ultimately ruled out, the Louisville product's next chance to return comes Wednesday against the Clippers.

Suffers hip injury Sunday Rozier (hip) provided two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 14 minutes during Sunday's 119-115 loss to the Nuggets before exiting with a right hip contusion...

Impact The Hornets initially labeled Rozier as questionable to return to the contest after he picked up the injury, but he ultimately remained sidelined for the entire second half. With Sunday marking the front end of a back-to-back set, an update on Rozier's status for Monday's game in Sacramento may not arrive until closer to that contest's 10 p.m. ET tipoff. If Rozier is sidelined Monday, the Hornets will likely turn to Kelly Oubre to start on the wing alongside Gordon Hayward.

Goes ice cold from three Rozier finished with 25 points (8-28 FG, 2-13 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 141-134 overtime loss to the Piston...

Impact Rozier managed to finish as one of Charlotte's top scorers, but he needed 28 shots from the field and eight attempts from the charity stripe to reach 25 points. This was an uncharacteristic shooting line for the Lousiville product, who had shot 48.1 percent from the field and 41.7 percent from three in his previous five matchups heading into Wednesday's clash.

Scores team-high 29 points Rozier compiled 29 points (10-20 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and six assists in 34 minutes in Sunday's 131-113 loss in Philadelphia.

Impact Rozier scored 15 first-half points despite getting into foul trouble and being limited to 15 minutes of playing time. It was his third straight game making at least 10 baskets and shooting at least 50.0 percent. Even with the recent scoring efficiency, he's made just 40.7 percent of his shots and 33.1 percent of his three-pointers on the season.
