Hornets center Chris Kaman will miss New Orleans' final five games because of a bruised left tibia.
The Hornets say the injury occurred during New Orleans' victory over Memphis on Sunday night.
The 7-foot Kaman missed the Hornets' win at Charlotte on Monday night.
Kaman, a ninth-year pro who'll be a free agent this summer, was acquired by New Orleans — along with Eric Gordon, Al-Farouq Aminu and a first-round draft pick — in a deal that sent Chris Paul to the Los Angeles Clippers before the regular season.

Kaman also had a team-leading 15 double-doubles.
