Hornets update Terry Rozier’s injury status, going into road game versus Miami Het

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier is listed as questionable to play Monday against the Heat in Miami.

Rozier sprained his right ankle while running up-court late in the first half of Saturday’s 126-114 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. Rookie LaMelo Ball replaced him in the second half, and had his best NBA game so far.

Rozier has started all 20 Hornets games this season at shooting guard. He is second on the team in scoring, averaging 18.6 points per game, behind forward Gordon Hayward’s 23.2 ppg.

With Rozier ruled out Saturday, Hornets coach James Borrego went with rookie Ball as the second-half starter, playing with fellow guard Devonte Graham.
