Won't return Wednesday Sexton won't return to Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to a left knee contusion.

Impact Sexton played nine minutes before leaving this game for good during the second half. He finished with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two assists and one block. If he misses additional time, the Hornets could turn to Antonio Reeves and Sion James.

Instant offense off bench Sexton logged 15 points (5-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 19 minutes during Monday's 116-103 loss to the Nets.

Impact With Brandon Miller (shoulder) and Tre Mann (ankle) both in street clothes Monday, Sexton scored an efficient 15 points off the bench but didn't see a rise in playing time. The veteran guard is a fine low-end option in points leagues, but his high turnover rate and lack of contributions across the board severely limits his effectiveness in category-based leagues. Sexton has averaged 16.1 points, 4.4 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 0.8 steals and 2.6 turnovers per contest in 20 games this season.

Slides to bench Sexton will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

Impact The Hornets' entire preferred starting five is healthy Wednesday, pushing Sexton to the second unit after starting Sunday's game against Atlanta. In six appearances with the reserves this season, Sexton is averaging 15.7 points and 3.7 assists across 22.3 minutes.

NOVEMBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Sets season high in loss Sexton contributed 22 points (8-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT) and four assists in 36 minutes during Sunday's 113-110 loss to Atlanta.

Impact After coming off the bench in each of his previous three outings, the eighth-year guard got the starting nod due to LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Brandon Miller (shoulder) being sidelined. Sexton struggled from three-point range but still finished as Charlotte's second-leading scorer, setting a new season-high mark in points. He has scored in double figures in 10 straight games and continues to provide an offensive spark for the Hornets. While he'll likely shift to a bench role whenever Ball and Miller are available, Sexton is expected to continue seeing significant minutes.

Starting role Sunday Sexton is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Hawks, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.

Impact Sexton will make his 10th start of the season Sunday with LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Brandon Miller (shoulder) sidelined. In his nine previous starts, Sexton has averaged 15.2 points, 5.4 assists and 2.7 rebounds in 28.6 minutes per game.

Leads bench with 18 points Sexton posted 18 points (7-13 FG, 4-4 FT), four assists, three bounds and one steal over 22 minutes during the Hornets' 131-116 loss to the Clippers on Saturday.

Impact Sexton led the Hornets' bench in scoring Saturday and was one of five Hornets players to score at least 18 points. The veteran guard's usage on offense was steady despite the return of Brandon Miller, though Sexton's production could dip as the former's playing time increases. Sexton has averaged 13.8 points, 4.8 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 0.6 steals over 25.7 minutes per game since Nov. 1.

Returning to bench Sexton isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Raptors.

Impact Sexton drew the start Saturday due to the absence of LaMelo Ball, but the Alabama product will retreat to a bench role Monday evening. He was effective in his last showing as a reserve, finishing with 14 points and four assists despite logging only 16 minutes Friday against Milwaukee.

NOVEMBER 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 13 in starting role Sexton posted 13 points (5-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Saturday's 109-96 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Sexton got the start at point guard due to the absence of LaMelo Ball (rest). While he didn't have his best shooting performance after needing 13 shots to score 13 points, he had a decent output in peripheral categories. Sexton has been in and out of the starting five, but it wouldn't be surprising if he reverts back to the bench Monday at Toronto if Ball is cleared to return.

Returns to starting role Sexton is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Sexton returns to the first unit due to the absence of LaMelo Ball (rest). The veteran floor general is averaging 15.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 0.9 steals per game in eight starts this season.

NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Just 16 minutes in loss Sexton logged 14 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and four assists over 16 minutes during Friday's 147-134 overtime loss to Milwaukee.

Impact Sexton moved back to the bench with LaMelo Ball returning from his ankle injury. The move impacted Sexton, limiting him to just 16 minutes. While he did manage to score 14 points, the bigger takeaway was the reduced playing time, a fact that could end up with him being nothing more than a streaming consideration. With that said, there is a chance Ball will sit out Saturday's game against the Thunder, meaning Sexton could get a short reprieve.

NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting Friday Sexton isn't part of the starting lineup for Friday's game against Milwaukee.

Impact LaMelo Ball is returning from a multi-game absence Friday, and instead of lining up alongside Ball in the backcourt, Sexton will be coming off the bench. Sexton had started in eight of 10 appearances to start the season. Sion James will start at the shooting guard spot.

NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Adds 16 despite shooting struggles Sexton totaled 16 points (5-14 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 111-100 win over the Bucks.

Impact Sexton never quite got comfortable on the offensive end, needing 14 field-goal attempts to reach 16 points. The guard has dealt with both a neck and ankle injury over the last week or so but has now been able to suit up for two straight matchups. Sexton has scored in double figures in nine of 10 appearances this year, averaging 15.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists in 26.9 minutes.

Impact As expected, Sexton will shed his probable tag due to a right ankle strain and suit up against Milwaukee. Over his last five appearances (four starts), the 26-year-old guard has averaged 13.6 points and 5.2 assists in 26.0 minutes per contest. He's expected to remain in the starting lineup with both LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Brandon Miller (shoulder) sidelined.

Over his last five appearances (four starts), Sexton has averaged 13.6 points and 5.2 assists in 26.0 minutes per contest.

The 26-year-old guard is likely to see increased minutes against the Lakers with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined. Over his last five games (four starts), Sexton has averaged 14.6 points, 5.8 assists and 2.6 rebounds in 26.2 minutes per contest.
