Back to bench Wednesday Sexton is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's preseason game against Memphis.
Impact While he started Saturday's preseason game against the Mavericks, Sexton will instead come off the bench Wednesday as the Hornets tinker with their starting lineup.

Starting Collin Sexton has benefits that Hornets just cannot ignore The Charlotte Hornets have not yet committed to a starting lineup, but Collin Sexton has made a strong case to be a part of it.
OCTOBER 14 • SWARMANDSTING.COM
Starting against Dallas Sexton is in the starting lineup for Saturday's preseason game against the Mavericks, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Impact Sexton is one of the players competing for a role in the Hornets' backcourt, but he should be a lock to make the rotation even if he comes off the bench. Sexton had 15 points and two assists in a preseason loss to the Thunder on Thursday.
OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE
Looks sharp in 15 minutes Sexton produced 15 points (5-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two assists, one rebound and one steal in 15 minutes of Thursday's 122-116 preseason loss to the Thunder.
Impact Sexton came off the bench for the second game in a row Thursday, but he made a big impact in this one. Kon Knueppeland Tre Mann have each started one preseason game so far, but based on coach Charles Lee's comments, Sexton may get a chance to showcase what he can in the first unit as well -- Lee mentioned the Hornets may base their starters on the matchups.
OCTOBER 10 • ROTOWIRE
Candidate to start based on matchup Head coach Charles Lee suggested Sunday that Sexton could be a candidate to start this season, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Impact Lee also mentioned Kon Knueppel, who started Sunday's preseason opener against the Thunder, and Tre Mann as possibilities for a starting role in 2025-26. With this situation in a state of flux, matchups could dictate who gets the nod in the first unit on a game-to-game basis. Sexton should still play a significant role as a scorer off the bench, as he averaged 18.4 points, 4.2 assists and 1.7 three-pointers 27.9 minutes per game in 63 contests for the Jazz in 2024-25.
