Charlotte Hornets guard Coby White made his season debut Monday against the Detroit Pistons , returning after a seven-game absence as the former UNC guard was dealing with a calf strain. Now, ahead of Charlotte's road matchup Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets , sharpshooting forward Kon Knueppel has been listed as probable to make his season debut.
Knueppel, who took the NBA by storm as a rookie, will provide much-needed shooting efficiency to a Hornets team that is dead last in field goal percentage and 16th in 3-point percentage despite averaging more attempts than any other NBA team. Also listed as probable is the aforementioned White, who played on a minutes restriction against Detroit. Grant Williams, who is sidelined with a hamstring strain, is the only player listed out for the Hornets.

Brooklyn will also be without one of their main contributors, sophomore guard Egor Demin.
