Mon Apr 1416:53Brandon Miller Unsure When He'll Return To Full Basketball Activities
Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller was asked during his final press conference whether or not he'd be returning soon. The second-year wing stated that he's not sure when exactly he'll fully return, but they're currently working on his range of motion. Rod Boone of the Charlotte Observer stated that it sounds like Miller is still a few months away. He only appeared in 27 games this season due to a torn ligament in his right wrist, and finished with a stat line of 21.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.1 steals, and 3.9 threes per game. Miller is one of the Hornets' core pieces alongside LaMelo Ball and Mark Williams, but their issue has been staying on the court so far.

Thu Jan 2316:52Brandon Miller Will Miss The Rest Of The Season
Charlotte Hornets guard Brandon Miller (wrist) will miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn scapholunate ligament in his right wrist, the team announced on Thursday. The No. 2 pick overall in the 2023 NBA Draft looked very promising in his 27 games this season, averaging 21.0 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.1 steals while playing 34.2 minutes per game. He carried the load for the team when LaMelo Ball was out and will be a key part of the team's plans for the future after he recovers from this surgery. Nick Smith Jr. has stepped into the starting lineup in each of the last three games in Miller's place, averaging 14.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.0 steal per game while playing 25+ minutes in each contest. Smith should continue to benefit from Miller's absence in the short term while Josh Green, Cody Martin, and eventually Tre Mann (back) will all help carry Miller's work going forward.

Fri Jan 1718:36Brandon Miller Ruled Out For Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (wrist) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Miller appears to have suffered a wrist sprain during Wednesday's game. As a result, Miller won't play on Friday, so his next chance to get on the court will be on Monday. The loss of Miller is going to be tough to fill given Miller is playing over 30 minutes per game. The expectation is that the Hornets are going to use a committee approach to help fill the void. Cody Martin, Nick Smith, and Josh Okogie should all see more minutes on Friday. Out of the three, Martin is the best streaming choice and could be worth a look while Miller is out.

Thu Jan 1621:38Brandon Miller Questionable Against Chicago
Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (wrist) is questionable heading into Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The 22-year-old had 20 points, five boards, three steals, and one block in Wednesday's victory over the Utah Jazz. But he's uncertain to suit up on Friday because of a wrist sprain. Miller has already missed 10 games this season, so fantasy managers are keeping their fingers crossed regarding his availability versus the Bulls. If Miller Isn't out there, Seth Curry, averaging 10.6 points and shooting 45.9% from deep in eight starts this season, will likely fill the void in the lineup, making him an appealing value option for DFS managers.

Sun Jan 517:12Brandon Miller Will Be Back In Action On Sunday
Charlotte Hornets guard Brandon Miller will be able to return from his six-game absence on Sunday when the Hornets face the Cavaliers in Cleveland. Miller and LaMelo Ball (ankle, wrist) will both be back in action for Charlotte, giving them their two top offensive options for the first time since December 26. In his second season, the former No. 2 overall pick is having a breakout campaign, averaging 21.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in 34.5 minutes per game in his 23 games this season. Miller may be on a minutes restriction, but he should quickly step back into a key role in Charlotte's offense.

Sat Jan 417:33Brandon Miller Questionable Heading Into Sunday Against Cavaliers
Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Miller has missed six of Charlotte's last seven games dealing with a left ankle sprain. The 22-year-old has been a solid option in Charlotte's offense when healthy, averaging 21.4 PPG this season. If active, fantasy managers can expect him to take quite a few shots from deep as Cleveland's defense is prone to three-point shooters. If not, expect LaMelo Ball (if active) to be the best fantasy option for the Hornets. If neither can go, expect Miles Bridges to become the main focal point of Charlotte's offense.

Fri Jan 318:25Brandon Miller Still Out Versus The Pistons
Charlotte Hornets guard Brandon Miller (ankle) remains out on Friday against the Pistons. He's had the best season of his young career, averaging 21.4 points, 5.1 boards, and 1.1 steals. Unfortunately, the 22-year-old has been sidelined of late, missing time because of an ankle injury. Hopefully, Miller can play on Sunday versus Cleveland. But as far as Friday night is concerned, Miles Bridges, Seth Curry, and Vasilije Micic should see most of the offensive opportunities, considering LaMelo Ball (ankle, wrist) will miss a third-straight contest.

Thu Jan 220:53Brandon Miller Uncertain For Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Miller has missed five of the last six games due to a lingering ankle injury. The Hornets have also been without guard LaMelo Ball (wrist, ankle) for the last two games, so they've been shorthanded lately. Vasilije Micic and Seth Curry have been asked to take on bigger roles over the last few games. Curry has scored double digits in each of his last two games, but he doesn't offer much fantasy value outside of the scoring. That being said, Curry is a low-end streaming option if Miller is forced to miss Friday's game.

Fri Dec 27 202421:55Brandon Miller Iffy For Saturday's Action
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Brandon Miller (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against Oklahoma City. After missing three games with a left ankle sprain, Miller put in a 36-minute shift against Washington on Thursday. However, the questionable designation ahead of Saturday suggests that Miller might return to the shelf. If he's out, Cody Martin will likely jump back into the starting lineup. Martin's production has not changed a lot in a starting role this season, but he should see more action after logging only 19 minutes in Thursday's matchup.

Thu Dec 26 202418:14Brandon Miller Back In Hornets Lineup
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Brandon Miller (ankle) has received the all-clear to return from a three-game absence on Thursday versus Washington. He has recovered from a left ankle sprain. Miller sits behind LaMelo Ball as Charlotte's second-highest scorer with 21.5 points averaged. He's also notched 5.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 1.5 steals in 34.4 minutes. The Wizards get overrun regularly and give up the most points in the league, so Miller should enjoy a productive comeback. With Miller's return, Cody Martin loses fantasy value, as he likely has to give up his spot in the first unit.

Wed Dec 25 202420:46Brandon Miller Listed As Questionable For Thursday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Brandon Miller (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's action against Washington. He's hoping to return from a three-game absence. At the start of the week, it was reported that Miller was "making good progress," so he should be ready to rejoin the action soon. If Miller doesn't return on Thursday, Cody Martin and DaQuan Jeffries should continue to get extra work. Martin has made back-to-back starts, but his offensive game is inconsistent, making him a fairly risky fantasy option. Jeffries has been a new addition to the rotation lately, averaging 8.0 points and 3.0 rebounds across the past two games.

But with Tree Mann (back) also out, there is room for Vasilije Micic, Miles Bridges, and Cody Martin to benefit on the scoring end.
