Injury report

Brooklyn Nets

  • Michael Porter Jr.Out· back Nov 16Report updated ·
    Report note

    Porter (personal) is out for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Brian Lewis of the New York Post reports. Porter was handed a questionable tag Saturday afternoon and now won't suit up for this matchup in Memphis. This is a huge loss for Brooklyn, as Porter is averaging 21.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals per game this season. Keon Ellis, Terance Mann and Danny Wolf could all see more minutes with Porter out, while Julius Randle would be in line for a higher usage rate on offense.

Charlotte Hornets

  • Kon KnueppelOut· back Dec 12Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Left Hamstring Strain (2026-11-15, CHA@LAC). Prior reporting (2026-11-08): Knueppel (hamstring) was diagnosed with a left hamstring strain Sunday and will be re-evaluated in four weeks. Knueppel missed the first eight games of the 2026-27 campaign. He returned for the 114-104 loss to Brooklyn on Wednesday, though he exited the contest after just six minutes of work and didn't return. With Knueppel out of commission for at least a month, Grayson Allen and Sion James are candidates to replace him in the starting lineup, especially with Dennis Schroder (hamstring) sidelined for a minimum of two weeks.

  • Dennis SchroderOut· back Nov 25Report updated ·
    Report note

    Injury/Illness - Left Hamstring Strain (2026-11-15, CHA@LAC). Prior reporting (2026-11-08): Schroder has been diagnosed with a left hamstring strain and will be reevaluated in two weeks, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype.com reports. Schroder, who missed Friday's game due to what was described as a left thigh injury, has been diagnosed with a hamstring strain. He is set to be reevaluated in two weeks, suggesting he will miss at least the next five games. Christian Anderson and Sion James could see extra minutes with Schroder sidelined.
