Cody Zeller (hand) probable for Hornets on Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward/center Cody Zeller (fractured left hand) is listed as probable to play in Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls.
What It Means:
Zeller broke his hand in the Hornets' opener and hasn't played since. Bismack Biyombo has been filling in as the starting center and P.J. Washington has been logging minutes as the backup five. There hasn't been any mention of a minutes limit for Zeller in his first game back.
numberFire's models project Zeller for 18.6 minutes and 18.0 FanDuel points on Friday. Biyombo is averaging similar minutes as a starter (27.1) and off the bench (24.4).
