Nicolas Batum (ankle) ruled out for Bobcats in matchup with Orlando
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's regular-season finale against the Orlando Magic.
What It Means:
With the playoffs right around the corner, it's not at all surprising to see Charlotte withhold Batum from Wednesday's game. Jeremy Lin figures to benefit most sans Batum, while there will be some increased opportunity for guys like Jeremy Lamb and Troy Daniels.
Batum owns a -0.5 nERD, which ranks 80th, in 70 games played this season. He's averaging a career-best 14.9 points, 5.8 assists and 6.1 rebounds to go with a 54.6 True Shooting Percentage.
