Cody Zeller (hand) about a week away from returning for Charlotte
Charlotte Hornets center Cody Zeller (hand) is "about a week away" from returning to action.
What It Means:
Zeller has been out since December 31 with a broken hand, putting him on track to return after five weeks. His return will likely shift Bismack Biyombo back to the bench and reduce Willy Hernangomez's minutes too. All three are likely to split up the center minutes when Zeller returns.
Zeller averaged 9.3 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 0.8 blocks per game before the injury this season.
