INJURIES

Not starting Thursday Salaun is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's preseason game against the Pacers.
Impact Salaun started against the Knicks on Tuesday, but the rookie will make way for Seth Curry, who will get the nod at shooting guard alongside Brandon Miller and LaMelo Ball in the backcourt. Salaun should see decent minutes off the bench, though, as this is the Hornets' preseason finale before the regular-season opener against the Rockets on Oct. 23.
OCTOBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Heavy playing time vs. Knicks Salaun tallied 13 points (5-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt) and eight rebounds across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 111-105 preseason loss to the Knicks.
Impact Salaun was inserted into the starting five for Seth Curry on Tuesday, and the former got an extended look with a game-high 37 minutes of playing time. The rookie first-round pick is expected to come off the bench for the start of the 2024-25 regular season, but Salaun could earn more minutes -- and possibly a spot in the starting rotation -- if he outplays Josh Green (rest) and Cody Martin early on.
OCTOBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Receives start vs. Knicks Salaun will enter the starting lineup for Tuesday's preseason game against the Knicks.
Impact The rookie will replace Seth Curry in the starting five, marking Salaun's first start of the preseason. The 19-year-old is expected to come off the bench this season, though if injury concerns arise for Josh Green (rest) or Cody Martin (wrist), Salaun will likely see an uptick in playing time.
OCTOBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Posts 13 points from bench Salaun totaled 13 points (5-12 FG, 3-10 3Pt), five rebounds, an assist and a steal across 24 minutesin Thursday's 119-94 win over the Grizzlies.
Impact Salaun will probably see a lot of time in the preseason. The first-round pick has an excellent chance to remain on the roster and avoid a G League post thanks to previous pro experience in France. The power forward enters a crowded depth chart and will play behind Miles Bridges this season.
OCTOBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Debuts with 11 points off bench Salaun finished Sunday's preseason game against the Knicks with 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt) and one rebound in 22 minutes.
Impact Making his NBA debut, Salaun held his own off the bench, draining three triples on his way to finishing as one of five Hornets players to score in double figures. The No. 6 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft is one of the biggest mysteries in the class, and it's unclear just how much of a role the 19-year-old will have when the regular season begins. For now, he's a player to keep an eye on in deeper leagues and dynasty formats.
OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Scores eight points Saturday Salaun logged eight points (3-7 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds and one assist in 14 minutes of Saturday's 94-90 Summer League win over the Knicks.
Impact Selected with the No. 6 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Salaun is considered a long-term bet on upside for the Hornets. In the short term, the Hornets could utilize his wingspan, athleticism and defensive energy off the bench. While playing for Cholet in France in the 2023-24 season, the forward averaged 9.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.0 assists.
JULY 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Out of Hornets minicamp Salaun will be unavailable for the Hornets' minicamp due to a minor laceration near his knee.
Impact The No. 6 overall pick in the 2024 draft is expected to miss the club's minicamp in Sacramento on Tuesday, but he will likely be available for Summer League. The 18-year-old played for Cholet in France in the 2023-24 season, during which he averaged 9.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.0 assists across 22.7 minutes per game.
