What It Means:

Rozier is having his worst shooting month of the season (37.7 percent) and the knee problem could be playing a factor. P.J. Washington (ankle) has been downgraded to doubtful and the Hornets are already without LaMelo Ball (wrist), Gordon Hayward (foot), and Malik Monk (ankle). Devonte' Graham should see a spike in usage on Tuesday and there will also be more opportunities for Cody Martin and Caleb Martin. Brad Wanamaker is another potential streamer for the shorthanded Hornets.

Graham is leading the Hornets with a 27.5 percent usage rate and averaging 1.4 FanDuel points per minute with Rozier, Washington, Ball, Hayward, and Monk off the court this season. Bridges tops the team with a positive usage differential of 8.6 percent with those five off the floor.
