Diabaté is on track to return following a two-game absence, and he could slot back in as Charlotte’s starting center, pushing PJ Hall to the bench. Salaün is back in action after one game on the sideline, and he could handle his usual allotment of minutes in the Hornets’ rotation.

Barring any setbacks, Knueppel is on track to play through a hip injury that landed him on Sunday’s injury report as questionable. He finished with 18 points and a pair of triples in Saturday’s win over the Bulls.

Porter has recorded three double-doubles in his last four appearances, but the 25 points scored in Sunday’s win were the most in a game for him in nearly a month. A fourth-round player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, Porter continues to exceed expectations in fantasy basketball. For the season, he has been a first-round player in eight-cat formats. The Bucks play three games in Week 12.

Usually, the approach of having Giannis earn his points at the foul line results in him leaving some points on the board, given his poor shooting at the free-throw line. Well, that approach didn’t work for the Kings, as he made 11 of his 13 attempts on the night. Add in an elite shooting performance from the field, and the Bucks superstar finished with his third 30-point double-double in as many appearances. While Milwaukee’s not playing again until Wednesday is bad news for fantasy managers, it does get Giannis a little more time to deal with his right calf.

Salaün did not play in Saturday’s win over the Bulls, sitting out with a sore left ankle. Josh Green played 25 minutes off the bench, and the Hornets had to go small when fill-in PJ Hall was not on the floor, given the team’s many absences in the frontcourt.

Miller is dealing with a left knee contusion, but the probable tag suggests that he will be available for Monday’s matchup with the reigning champs. Miller hasn’t missed a game in a month, with Sion James being his replacement in a December 3 loss to the Knicks. With Kon Knueppel questionable, James may start even if Miller is available.

Monday’s game will be the eighth that Kalkbrenner has missed since suffering a sprained left elbow. Who starts at center on Monday depends on the health of Moussa Diabaté (wrist), who is questionable after missing Charlotte’s last two games. If he can play, Diabaté will likely start. If not, PJ Hall would retain the job.

Diabaté has missed Charlotte’s last two games with a sprained right wrist. With Ryan Kalkbrenner and Mason Plumlee already out, the Hornets turned to PJ Hall to fill the void at the center position. He’ll get another start if Diabaté cannot return on Monday.

Bridges delivered an impressive all-around stat sheet-stuffing performance as Charlotte erased an early deficit, outscoring Chicago 62-41 in the second half to pull away for a relatively easy win. The 27-year-old forward has scored at least 25 points in back-to-back games as he continues to receive additional creation possessions and play a larger role from a rebounding standpoint due to injuries. The Hornets have four games next week including matchups against the Thunder, Raptors, Pacers and Jazz.

Miller went off in the late stages of this one after entering halftime with just four points, knocking down 7-of-12 shots, including 4-of-7 from three-point range, to finish with a game-high 18 second-half points. The 23-year-old forward is averaging 21.3 shot attempts over his last four games as the Hornets continue to lean on him more in clutch situations.

With Mason Plumlee (groin) out until at least February, Charlotte will play this game without a true center. PJ Hall played 19 minutes as a starter on Friday, while Tidjane Salaün played 22 minutes off the bench and was more productive. Both will play significant roles once again.

Antetokounmpo delivered the game-winner on an alley-oop slam with five seconds left in regulation, reaching the lofty 30-point plateau in the process. The 31-year-old fantasy superstar has scored 24 points or more in four consecutive contests since returning from injury last week and has notched back-to-back double-double performances. He shot 61 percent from the floor in this one with all 18 of his attempts coming from inside the arc. Perhaps the most impressive element of this effort was that he went a perfect 8-of-8 from the charity stripe.

Knueppel showed zero signs of rust following a one-game absence recovering from a sprained right ankle, topping 20 points for the sixth time in his last nine games since December 12. The 20-year-old rookie sensation has been a revelation this season, delivering sixth-round fantasy value, averaging 19.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.2 blocks through 33 games.

Rollins drilled a clutch three-pointer in the final minute before setting up teammate Kyle Kuzma for a go-ahead trey with just over 10 seconds remaining in regulation. The 23-year-old guard has been up-and-down from a scoring standpoint but he’s settled in as a reliable all-around offensive threat and a big reason why Milwaukee is starting to turn things around. He’s delivered top-50 overall fantasy value this season, averaging 17.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.4 blocks through 35 games.

Bridges delivered a pair of clutch buckets in the final minute but it still wasn’t enough as Giannis and company made just enough plays in the closing seconds to outlast the Hornets in this one. The 27-year-old forward put together his first 20-point effort since December 14 and looked sharp in his return after a brief one-game absence due to an ankle injury.

Bridges is back after missing Wednesday’s loss to the Warriors, and his return means that Collin Sexton will head to the bench.

KPJ was one of Milwaukee’s top couple of scorers on Wednesday, and he shot efficiently from the floor despite major struggles from the three-point line. He also contributed on the glass and as a passer, which have been standard for him this season. Poter will continue to be counted on by the Bucks for nightly production, regardless of who he is sharing the floor with. He finished December strong and should remain a productive fantasy basketball option at the guard position.

Rollins was part of a productive starting backcourt on Wednesday, performing adequately alongside Kevin Porter Jr. to put up fairly strong numbers. Rollins led the Bucks in assists and was one of three players to tally at least 15 points. He’s rotated in and out of the starting lineup recently, but he’s remained effective regardless. He’ll look to carry his recent success into 2026 as the Bucks face the Hornets on January 2.

Antetokounmpo logged just 28 minutes against the Wizards as he eases his way back from a calf injury. Still, he managed to reach the 30-point mark and tally double-digit rebounds for the first time in over a month. The former league MVP failed to accumulate any stocks in this game, however, and was inconsistent from the line. Otherwise, his night was encouraging, and his performances moving forward should remain strong as his minutes increase.

Sexton got the starting nod in place of the injured Miles Bridges, and he made the most of his opportunities. The Young Bull shot just 6-of-16 from the floor and 0-of-5 from beyond the arc, but efficiency aside, he offered useful numbers to fantasy managers who decided to stream him. Sexton could stick with the first unit if Bridges is forced to miss additional time. The Hornets play a Friday-Saturday back-to-back set against the Bucks and Bulls.

Miller led all scorers in this one, but his high-scoring effort wasn’t enough to guide Charlotte to victory.

Antetokounmpo didn’t show any signs of rust in his first game action since December 3 after an eight-game absence due to a right calf strain. He dropped 15 points on 7-of-9 shooting in the first half and nearly reached the lofty 30-point plateau in just 24 minutes. He also uncorked a windmill dunk in the final seconds with the game in hand that drew a strong reaction from the Bulls and led to a benches-clearing incident. It seems likely he’ll have a bit of a minutes restriction for at least a couple additional games but it’s a welcome development for fantasy managers to get him back in the lineup. The Bucks have four games on tap next week including a pair against the Hornets in addition to the Wizards and Kings.

Porter Jr. had several highs and lows throughout Friday’s loss. He finished as the Bucks’ second leading scorer, but shot poorly overall and made only one of his seven three-point attempts. He also tied a team-high in assists, although his seven turnovers led to a poor assist-to-turnover ratio and cost his team several scoring opportunities. His eight turnovers were impactful and helped add to his balanced stat line. However, he left a lot of meat on the bone and will look to be more consistent on Saturday against the Bulls.
