LaMelo Ball's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) won't play on Thursday against Utah. Ball has missed more than a few games this season. However, his latest ailment, right ankle Tendinopathy, has kept him off the floor for Charlotte's last 11 games. At this point, nobody can say for certain when Ball will be back in the lineup. But until that happens, Tre Mann, averaging 13.7 points, 7.3 assists, and 7.0 rebounds in three starts with the Hornets, is undoubtedly worth adding to any fantasy lineup.

With Terry Rozier (shoulder) now in Miami, Tre Mann, who nearly had a triple-double on Monday night against Indiana, is worthy of a starting spot in all fantasy lineups.

Of course, Miles Bridges and Brandon Miller are still the safest options in terms of potential on the scoring end.

Health issues have limited Ball to just seven games since Nov. 26, and he currently doesn't have a timeline for a return. Ish Smith is looking at a third straight start without Ball on Wednesday. The veteran hasn't been very productive with the extended minutes. Ball's injury and Terry Rozier's trade to Miami have had the biggest impact on Brandon Miller's performances, as the second pick from last year's draft has scored 20-plus points in nine of his last 11 appearances. Miller has even boosted his scoring average to 32.0 points in three games this month.
