Hornets' Liam McNeeley: Modest outing in win
McNeeley contributed five points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 12 minutes during Wednesday's 111-100 victory over the Bucks.
McNeeley continues to backup Miles Bridges but has not been effective shooting the ball, averaging 5.5 points on just 27.8 percent from the field and 36.4 percent from three in his last four games. Grant Williams (knee) has yet to make his season debut and there is no timetable for his return, so McNeeley should continue to see the court with the second unit in the meantime.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Adds 16 despite shooting struggles
Sexton totaled 16 points (5-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 111-100 win over the Bucks.
Sexton never quite got comfortable on the offensive end, needing 14 field-goal attempts to reach 16 points. The guard has dealt with both a neck and ankle injury over the last week or so but has now been able to suit up for two straight matchups. Sexton has scored in double figures in nine of 10 appearances this year, averaging 15.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists in 26.9 minutes.

Hornets' Moussa Diabate: Snags 13 boards
Diabate logged seven points (1-3 FG, 5-6 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 23 minutes during Wednesday's 111-100 victory over the Bucks.
Diabate didn't offer much in terms of scoring production, but he led the Hornets on the boards with 13 rebounds, which marks a season high for the Michigan product. Despite coming off the bench in every game this season, Diabate has offered up reasonable contributions, averaging 9.8 points and 7.5 rebounds while knocking down 65.0 percent of his field-goal attempts through 11 appearances.

Hornets' Ryan Kalkbrenner: Enjoys perfect shooting night
Kalkbrenner totaled 17 points (8-8 FG, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, three blocks and one steal over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 111-100 victory over the Bucks.
Kalkbrenner made the most of every offensive opportunity in this one, failing to miss a single shot on the night. He made an impact on the glass as well, falling just one rebound shy of his third double-double on the season. Kalkbrenner has been a steady contributor in the scoring and rebounding categories lately, averaging 11.5 points on 87.0 percent shooting from the field and 7.3 rebounds in 25.8 minutes over his last four games.

Hornets' Miles Bridges: Sold output despite cold shooting
Bridges generated 20 points (7-19 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal over 33 minutes of Wednesday's 111-100 win over the Bucks.
Bridges was ice cold from beyond the arc but still wound up with at least 20 points for the fifth time in six games. During that six-game stretch, Bridges is averaging 24.8 points, 7.7 rebounds and 5.2 assists across 36.8 minutes. He led the Hornets in scoring Wednesday night.

Hornets' KJ Simpson: Cleared for Wednesday
Simpson (shoulder) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Simpson was tabbed probable for Wednesday's contest due to a sprained left shoulder. The two-way guard will give it a go, and he'll likely see decent action off the bench due to the absence of LaMelo Ball (ankle).

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Available Wednesday
Sexton (ankle) is listed as available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
As expected, Sexton will shed his probable tag due to a right ankle strain and suit up against Milwaukee. Over his last five appearances (four starts), the 26-year-old guard has averaged 13.6 points and 5.2 assists in 26.0 minutes per contest. He's expected to remain in the starting lineup with both LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Brandon Miller (shoulder) sidelined.

Hornets' Ryan Kalkbrenner: Good to go
Kalkbrenner (personal) is available for Wednesday's game against Milwaukee.
Kalkbrenner was previously listed as questionable due to personal reasons, but the rookie center will suit up and play Wednesday. He's logged four blocks in four of his past five games, and he's averaging 7.4 points and 6.0 rebounds during that stretch.

Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Upgraded to available
Connaughton (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Connaughton was initially listed as probable for this contest, so it's not surprising to see the veteran swingman being upgraded. Connaughton is averaging 8.0 minutes per game across six appearances this season, so he isn't likely to play a big role in the rotation even if available.

Hornets' Ryan Kalkbrenner: Iffy for Wednesday
Kalkbrenner (personal reasons) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Kalkbrenner was a very late addition to the injury report. The rookie has had a terrific start to the campaign with averages of 9.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.3 blocks in 26.6 minutes per contest. If he's unable to play, Moussa Diabate would likely be the next man up in Charlotte, and it's possible that Mason Plumlee could be involved as well.

Hornets' Collin Sexton: Probable for Wednesday
Sexton (ankle) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Sexton is dealing with a right ankle strain but is still likely to suit up against Milwaukee. If he's ultimately cleared to suit up, the 26-year-old guard is expected to remain in the starting five with LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Brandon Miller (shoulder) both sidelined. Over his last five appearances (four starts), Sexton has averaged 13.6 points and 5.2 assists in 26.0 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Probable for Wednesday
Connaughton is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks due to an illness.
The probable tag suggests Connaughton will likely be able to play Wednesday, although a final decision on his status will be made closer to Wednesday's tipoff at 7:00 p.m. ET. Connaughton is averaging 8.0 minutes per game across six appearances this season, so the final call on his availability shouldn't generate a lot of movement in most formats.

Hornets' KJ Simpson: Probable for Wednesday
Simpson (shoulder) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
A shoulder sprain isn't expected to keep Simpson from playing Wednesday. Simpson has averaged 5.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 15.8 minutes per contest over four games this season.

Hornets' Grant Williams: Remaining out vs. Milwaukee
Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Williams has yet to make his season debut as he continues rehabbing from right knee surgery he underwent in December. He can be considered week-to-week until the Hornets provide another update on his recovery.

Hornets' LaMelo Ball: Another absence coming
Ball (ankle) is out for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Wednesday will mark a fifth consecutive absence for Ball, who practiced with the Hornets' G League affiliate Tuesday. The superstar guard will be trying to return Friday against the Bucks. Tre Mann and Sion James are the most likely candidates for an increased role Wednesday.

Hornets' Josh Green: Ruled out for Wednesday
Green (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.
Green is still rehabbing from left shoulder surgery he underwent in June, and there remains no timetable for his return. He can be considered week-to-week until the Hornets provide an update on his recovery.

Hornets' Mason Plumlee: Recalled to NBA
Charlotte recalled Plumlee from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Tuesday.
Plumlee is back with Charlotte after spending the afternoon with the Swarm to get some practice reps alongside LaMelo Ball (ankle). Plumlee has been unable to crack the rotation in Charlotte outside of a few brief appearances.

Hornets' LaMelo Ball: Recalled to NBA
Charlotte recalled Ball from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Tuesday.
Ball spent the afternoon in the G League simply to get some reps as he works his way back from an ankle impingement. His status for Wednesday's game against the Bucks will be known once the Hornets submit their official injury report Tuesday evening.
