Nicolas Batum is probable Friday for Hornets

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum (knee) is probable to play against the 76ers on Friday.

What It Means:

Batum was back at practice on Thursday and barring any setbacks he looks like he'll play Friday. He has only missed two games, but the Hornets have lost all three of the games he hasn't finished after getting hurt, so his return will be welcome for Charlotte.

Batum is averaging a career-best 15.1 points and 5.8 assists to go with 7.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals over 34.5 minutes per game. He owns a career-worst .468 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of 0.2 ranks 133rd.
