DaQuan Jeffries - Out again Monday Jeffries (hand) has been Grant Afseth of DallasHoopsJournal.com for Monday's matchup against Minnesota.

Impact Jeffries will have to wait another game to make his 2024-25 season debut while recovering from a fractured right hand. However, the 27-year-old is not expected to be a regular member of the Hornets' rotation when available.

Nick Richards - Out Monday Richards (shoulder) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Minnesota.

Impact Richards is dealing with right shoulder soreness and will miss his second consecutive game Monday. The 26-year-old has been a mainstay in the starting lineup with Mark Williams (foot) out. However, with both Richards and Williams absent Monday, Grant Williams will likely step into the starting five at center once again.

Brandon Miller - Back on injury report Miller (glute) is questionable for Monday's game against the Timberwolves.

Impact Following a four-game absence, Miller returned to action Saturday against the Celtics and posted 16 points (6-8 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists, four rebounds, two steals and a block in 31 minutes. The left glute strain will likely make Miller a regular on the injury report for a bit. However, the second-year forward played well in his return and didn't have any restrictions, a good sign for his availability moving forward.

Sam Hauser - Listed probable for Monday Hauser is probable for Monday's game against the Hawks, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Hauser will likely play in a fourth straight contest after a three-game absence due to the back issue. Over his last three appearances, Hauser has averaged 17.3 minutes per game, but he could be in line for a bigger workload Monday, as Jaylen Brown (hip) is slated to miss his second straight game.

Jaylen Brown - Will miss second straight game Brown (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Hawks, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.

Impact Brown tweaked his hip during the third quarter of Friday's win over the Hornets and was sidelined for Saturday's rematch. He'll remain out Monday, opening up a few more minutes for Jordan Walsh, but the Celtics opted for a big lineup Saturday, starting Al Horford and Luke Kornet while Payton Pritchard played 29 minutes off the bench.
