Starting Thursday Sexton is in the starting lineup for Thursday's matchup with the Pacers.

Impact Joining Sexton in the first unit for Thursday's game will be Brandon Miller, Kon Knueppel, Miles Bridges and Moussa Diabate. As a starter this season, Sexton has posted averages of 15.9 points, 2.6 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.3 triples and 1.0 steals per contest.

Team's leading scorer off bench Sexton tallied 22 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and two rebounds over 24 minutes during the Hornets' 97-96 loss to the Raptors on Wednesday.

Impact Sexton ended up leading the Hornets in points during Wednesday's low-scoring affair, as no other Charlotte player scored more than 15 points during the loss. It was the fifth time he scored 20-plus points in a game and the first time doing so since Nov. 28 against the Bulls. In his eight outings since returning from a seven-game absence due to a left quadriceps strain, Sexton has averaged 14.8 points, 3.8 assists, 1.5 rebounds, 1.5 threes and 0.9 steals over 21.9 minutes per game.

Antetokounmpo's dunk in closing seconds gives Bucks 122-121 win over Hornets

Giannis Antetokounmpo dunked on a lob from Kevin Porter Jr. with 4.7 seconds remaining to give the Milwaukee Bucks a 122-121 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday night

Not starting Friday Sexton is not starting against the Bucks on Friday.

Impact Sexton will return to the bench for this contest. He's averaging 14.9 points per game when deployed off the bench, so he should still have some upside in most formats.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Starting sans Bridges Sexton will start against the Warriors on Wednesday, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact With Miles Bridges (ankle) sidelined, Sexton will get the starting nod for the first time since Nov. 23. In 10 starts so far this season, the 26-year-old guard has averaged 15.9 points, 5.3 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 29.3 minutes per contest.

Drops 13 points in win Sexton totaled 13 points (5-9 FG, 3-3 3Pt) and two assists in 18 minutes during Friday's 120-105 victory over Orlando.

Impact Sexton ended with at least 12 points for the second straight game, adding basically nothing when it comes to peripheral numbers. While his overall production continues to be disappointing, the bigger takeaway here was the fact that Kon Kneuppel was unable to finish the game after suffering an ankle injury. If the rookie is to miss time, Sexton could be in line for some additional minutes, making him a speculative add, even in 12-team leagues.

Scores 12 points in return Sexton recorded 12 points (2-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound, two assists and one block over 16 minutes during Tuesday's 126-109 win over the Wizards.

Impact Sexton was cleared to return Tuesday from a seven-game absence due to a left quad strain. He failed to reach the 20-minute benchmark in his return, but he managed to reach double-digit points while doing most of his work from the charity stripe. The Hornets don't play until Friday against the Magic, which gives Sexton more time to work on his conditioning in anticipation of taking on more minutes off the bench.

DECEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Available vs. Wizards Sexton (quad) is available for Tuesday's game against the Wizards.

Impact After missing seven straight outings with a left quad strain, the veteran guard is cleared to suit up. Sexton has averaged 15.2 points, 3.6 assists and 2.2 rebounds in 24.5 minutes per contest over his last 13 games. Sion James should see fewer minutes Tuesday.

His next chance to play will come Monday in Cleveland, which is the first leg of a back-to-back.

DECEMBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Saturday Sexton (quadriceps) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Pistons.

Impact Sexton is likely to miss his sixth consecutive contest due to a left quadriceps strain. On a more positive note, this marks the first time he has initially been ruled as doubtful instead of out since sustaining the injury. If he's ultimately ruled out, Sion James, Tre Mann (knee) and KJ Simpson are candidates for increased playing time.
