What It Means:

Kaminsky missed the opener, so he has yet to step on the court this regular season. Marvin Williams will likely be in for a bump in minutes on Friday night, while Michael Kidd-Gilchrist played some power forward in the Hornets opener as well. Cody Zeller could potentially play a few more minutes too.

In his rookie season, Kaminsky averaged 7.5 points and 4.1 rebounds in 21.1 minutes per game. He had only a .474 effective field goal percentage and he ranked 239th with a -0.3 nERD.
