Charlotte Hornets guard Brandon Miller will miss the rest of the season after having surgery to repair a torn ligament in his right wrist.

Hornets guard Brandon Miller will miss the remainder of the season after having surgery on a torn right wrist ligament suffered last week.

Despite garnering the most fan votes among players in the Eastern Conference, the Charlotte Hornets point guard didn’t receive enough of the overall vote. Instead, New York’s Jalen Brunson and Cleveland’s Donovan Mitchell will start for the conference in the league’s annual showcase.

The Charlotte Hornets want out of the civil lawsuit alleging star player LaMelo Ball ran over and broke a boy’s foot after a game at the Spectrum Center in October 2023.

Ball is fourth in the NBA in scoring at 29 points per game, while also tallying 7.5 assists per game, good for eighth.

Overmatched and overwhelmed from the opening tip, the Hornets yielded the most points they’ve surrendered in a half all season and were overpowered by the Memphis Grizzlies in a 132-120 loss at FedEx Forum Wednesday night.

Desmond Bane scored 24 points to extend his streak of 20-point games to six, leading the Memphis Grizzlies to a 132-120 wire-to-wire win over the visiting Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday.
