What It Means:

Rozier will remain out for Wednesday's home game against the Washington Wizards and Friday's rematch on the road. He will then be re-evaluated and could return on November 12 against the New York Knicks. Brandon Miller will likely remain in the starting lineup while Rozier is out and LaMelo Ball should continue to play a larger role on offense. Theo Maledon will also be able to benefit again off the Hornets' bench.

Rozier is averaging 35.1 FanDuel points in 35.8 minutes per game while registering the second-highest usage rate on the Hornets (25.5%) behind Ball (28.5%). Miller scored 12.7 FanDuel points in 36 minutes on Sunday as a starter in place of Rozier. LaMelo turned in a season-best 64.5 FanDuel points with his first triple-double of the year.
