Hornets' Michael Carter-Williams (shoulder) available to play Monday against Indiana

Charlotte Hornets point guard Michael Carter-Williams (shoulder) will be active against the Indiana Pacers on Monday.

What It Means:

MCW missed one game with a strained shoulder, sitting out Sunday's meeting with the Miami Heat. He rarely plays a big role for the Hornets, averaging 15.7 minutes per game, but Kemba Walker won't have to handle quite as many minutes on Monday as he did when he played 41 on Sunday.

numberFire's models project Carter-Williams for 3.2 points, 1.9 boards and 1.9 assists in 13.5 minutes of action on Monday.
