Mann will be back after missing one game due to an illness. However, he has only played a minimal role in recent weeks, so his return won’t alter the Hornets’ rotation dramatically.

Mann was questionable with the same illness before Wednesday’s game and was available but didn’t play. The Hornets have since ruled him out for Thursday’s game to give him more time to rest. It doesn’t change much for the Hornets’ rotation with Brandon Miller listed as probable.

Mann is a late addition to the injury report, but the probable tag suggests that he’ll be available for Wednesday’s game. His status does not affect fantasy basketball, especially with LaMelo Ball and Collin Sexton being available.

Mann did not play at all during the first three quarters of Saturday’s game. His name was called to begin the fourth, and the Hornets’ guard was not going to get cheated offensively. Mann shot 70 percent from the field and scored a team-high 20 points. The scoring outburst isn’t guaranteed to get Mann the minutes needed to affect fantasy basketball, so leave him on the waiver wire.

After missing seven games with a right knee bone bruise, Mann will be back in the lineup. With Collin Sexton (quad) out, Mann will split the backup point guard minutes with KJ Simpson, which won’t yield much box score production for either guard with LaMelo Ball healthy.

Mann has missed Charlotte’s last seven games with a bone bruise in his right knee. If he’s available on Saturday, KJ Simpson’s minutes are likely to decrease. Already boasting limited streaming value, Simpson would not merit consideration if Mann plays.

Thursday’s game will be the seventh that Mann has missed since being diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right knee. KJ Simpson should remain in the Hornets’ rotation in some capacity, with LaMelo Ball’s status being the determining factor. If Ball can play, Simpson will head back to the bench. He’ll start if Ball has to miss another game with his ankle injury.

Mann’s absence will hit six games on Sunday. While his injury alone would not affect fantasy basketball, the Hornets are also without LaMelo Ball and Collin Sexton. KJ Simpson will continue to start at point guard, while multiple players take on additional playmaking responsibilities, including Kon Knueppel and Miles Bridges.

Mann will miss a fourth straight game on Sunday, which means more minutes are available to KJ Simpson and Liam McNeeley. However, neither has done enough to merit being rostered.

Mann has missed the last two games with right knee soreness. Given that he was downgraded to doubtful just hours before Friday’s game against the Raptors, that absence could extend to three games. Liam McNeeley and KJ Simpson could see extra minutes if Mann is ultimately ruled out.

Mann has missed Charlotte’s last two games with a sore right knee, freeing up additional minutes for fellow reserves Collin Sexton and Liam McNeeley. However, with Sexton already ruled out for Friday’s game, McNeeley and KJ Simpson may be the ones who benefit if Mann cannot play.

Mann will miss a second straight game with a left ankle impingement. His absence should once again result in more playing time for Collin Sexton and Liam McNeeley. While McNeeley could have value later in the season, Sexton is a worthwhile option in deeper leagues currently.

Mann has been a nice rotation piece for the Hornets, contributing 9.2 points per game off the bench. In his absence, Collin Sexton should be the primary guard off the bench for a Hornets team looking to put together a third straight win on Monday. Liam McNeeley may also see more minutes.

Mann has played in Charlotte’s last four games following a two-game absence with an injury to the same ankle. Collin Sexton and Sion James would likely take on a few extra minutes if Mann is unavailable.

Mann was listed as probable on the second night of the back-to-back, and now he has officially been cleared to suit up. He’ll occupy his typical role off the bench, which hasn’t been enough time for him to make an impact on the box score with LaMelo Ball and Collin Sexton available.

Mann popped up on the injury report Saturday afternoon as probable with an ankle injury. The 24-year-old shooting guard missed multiple games last week due to the injury, but has played in the last three Hornets games. Mann figures to suit up again Saturday given his probable listing, but he still doesn’t offer much fantasy value in a bench role.

Mann has been upgraded from probable to available, which will help the Hornets account for the absences of LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller. Mann offers limited fantasy value, so the expanded role does not make him a must-stream in this spot.

Mann did not play in Saturday’s loss to the Clippers, which factored into Liam McNeeley playing 18 minutes off the bench. With LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller out, there will be ample room for Mann and McNeeley in the Hornets’ rotation. However, neither qualifies as a must-stream player.

Mann is set to miss his third consecutive game with a sprained left ankle. Drew Peterson had been filling in for him in the Hornets’ rotation, but Brandon Miller (shoulder) is set to return against the Clippers on Saturday. Mann will be in line for rotation minutes when he’s able, but he isn’t worth rostering in standard leagues.

Mann has missed Charlotte’s last two games with a sprained left ankle, leading to Drew Peterson entering the rotation. However, he was not productive enough to merit being streamed, and the Hornets should have Brandon Miller (shoulder) available since he is off the injury report. Mann will play rotation minutes if available, but there’s no need to roster him.

Mann was initially doubtful for Wednesday’s game after injuring his ankle during Monday’s loss to the Raptors. While Drew Peterson did play some following Mann’s exit, taking on a similar role is unlikely. There’s no need to consider streaming him since LaMelo Ball and Collin Sexton are available.

Mann exited early from Monday’s game against Toronto, and he is expected to remain out for at least one more game. Drew Peterson took on a few extra minutes, but he isn’t a player to consider rostering. LaMelo Ball and Collin Sexton may just end up taking on a few extra minutes with Mann out.

Mann exited Monday’s game with 1:33 remaining in the second quarter and did not return due to a sore left ankle. His potential absence for future games would not impact fantasy basketball. However, Drew Peterson played a few minutes off the bench in the second half while Mann was unavailable. There’s no need to consider adding Peterson.

With LaMelo Ball and Collin Sexton unavailable due to injury, Mann made his first start since April 14, 2024. The former first-round pick took advantage of his opportunity, even if the field-goal percentage was low. Mann recorded his first 20-point game of the season and provided good value in the rebound and assist categories. Charlotte won’t play again during Week 3, but Mann would have streaming value if Ball and Sexton miss Monday’s game against the Lakers.

Already without LaMelo Ball, the Hornets won’t have Collin Sexton for Friday’s game, either. As a result, Mann will make his first start of the season. He and Kon Knueppel are worth streaming until Ball and Sexton return, while James is an option for deep-league managers needing defensive production.

Initially questionable for Tuesday’s game, Mann will be available to contribute off the bench. Rookies Sion James and Liam McNeeley might miss out on the opportunities for additional minutes, but it must be noted that the Hornets are without Brandon Miller (shoulder). James is higher in the pecking order due to his defensive ability.

Mann has played 18.3 minutes per game off the bench this season, and his absence would likely open the door for rookie Sion James to take on extra minutes. He had 13 points, three triples and three stocks in 20 minutes off the bench in Charlotte’s last game.

Mann replaced Kon Knueppel in the starting lineup on Thursday and had a strong offensive showing. The fifth-year guard shot efficiently and utilized the three-point shot to leave his mark on offense. In just 23 minutes, he led all Charlotte players in scoring en route to a productive game overall. Mann is looking to have a bounce-back season after playing just 13 games for the Hornets a season ago.
