Terry Rozier Injury News & Updates

The NBA placed Rozier on immediate leave from the Heat on Thursday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.

Rozier was arrested Thursday morning as part of an FBI sports betting gambling probe, and the NBA is acting quickly while this investigation gets underway. As of now, there is no known timetable for a potential return for Rozier, as this could be a lengthy process.

Rozier was arrested Thursday morning as part of an FBI sports betting gambling probe, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Rozier was available for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Magic, but he wasn't part of Miami's rotation. In January, Rozier was put under federal investigation for potentially cooperating in an illegal sports betting scheme in 2023 while with the Hornets. The NBA announced that it conducted an investigation but did not find a violation of NBA rules, and the case shifted to the U.S. Attorney's Office. Rozier is in the final season of a four-year, $96.3 million contract he reached with the Hornets ahead of the 2021-22 season, but his status moving forward remains unclear. Jontay Porter received a lifetime ban in April of 2024 for violating the league's gaming rules.

Rozier (hamstring) has been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against the Magic.

After returning to practice last Thursday, Rozier is good to go for the season opener. He's been dealing with a hamstring strain, which kept him sidelined at times during the preseason.

Rozier (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier has been sidelined since the beginning of training camp with a hamstring issue, but it appears to be behind him. Considering the circumstances, Rozier will face an uphill battle to crack the rotation early on.

Rozier (hamstring) will not play in Sunday's exhibition against the Magic, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier has been sidelined since the beginning of training camp and doesn't have a timetable to return. He's likely doubtful at best for Monday's game against Atlanta.

Rozier (hamstring) did not practice Friday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier has been sidelined by a hamstring strain since Oct. 1 and remains without a timetable for a return. He's doubtful at best for Sunday's exhibition against Orlando.

Rozier (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Spurs, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier's hamstring issue will keep him sidelined, as he's also been unable to practice. The next opportunity for the veteran game to get back on the floor will be Sunday against the Magic.

Rozier (hamstring) didn't practice Tuesday, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier remains hobbled by a hamstring injury, meaning he can be tentatively considered doubtful for Wednesday's preseason game against the Spurs. After falling out of Miami's rotation at times a year ago, the veteran guard is ticketed for a reserve role despite the absence of Tyler Herro (ankle) to begin the season.

Rozier (hamstring) is out for Monday's preseason game against the Bucks, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier is out for a second straight game with a hamstring injury. His next chance to make his first preseason appearance comes Wednesday against the Spurs. With the veteran guard sidelined, Dru Smith could see an uptick in playing time.

Rozier (hamstring) will not play in Saturday's preseason game against Orlando, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier has been unable to practice since straining his left hamstring Tuesday. He doesn't have an official timetable to return, though his next chance to play comes Monday against the Bucks.

Rozier strained his left hamstring at practice Tuesday and did not participate in Wednesday's session, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

This is a new issue for Rozier after he previously battled an ankle injury. At this time, it's unclear how severe the strain is, but hamstring issues are typically not something to mess around with. Rozier's status for Saturday's preseason game versus Orlando is now in the air.

Rozier (illness) isn't listed on Miami's injury report for Saturday's game against the Bucks.

Rozier missed Thursday's loss to the Grizzlies due to a stomach illness but will suit up Saturday. However, the veteran guard isn't guaranteed playing time. He appeared in only two of the Heat's previous eight contests before his ailment.

Rozier (illness) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Grizzlies.

Rozier will miss Thursday's contest due to a stomach illness, but the veteran guard had only appeared in two of Miami's last eight outings, even when available. Rozier's next chance to suit up is Saturday's matchup with Milwaukee.

Rozier is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Grizzlies due to a stomach illness, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier has only appeared twice across Miami's previous eight outings, so his potential absence shouldn't significantly impact the team's rotation. If Rozier is upgraded to available, he will likely compete for bench minutes in Miami's backcourt with Davion Mitchell.

Rozier tallied 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six assists, five rebounds and one steal in 33 minutes in Monday's 120-94 win over the Wizards.

Rozier was incredibly impactful in all facets of the game Monday, scoring in double figures and leading the team in assists. Previously, the 31-year-old had appeared in just two of the Heat's last seven games, playing a grand total of 10 minutes. With Davion Mitchell (illness) out Monday, the veteran stepped in as the backup point guard to Tyler Herro and provided a spark off the bench. Rozier's playing time will likely dwindle back down with a healthy Mitchell, but Monday was an encouraging performance nonetheless.

Rozier (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier was listed on Tuesday's injury report due to an illness, but he has managed to recover enough to suit up for Wednesday's interconference clash. The veteran guard has averaged 7.4 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals over 20.1 minutes per game since the All-Star break. He should see a fair amount of playing time off the bench due to the absence of Alec Burks (back).

Rozier (illness) has been listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Clippers.

Rozier popped up on the injury report for the Heat on Tuesday, with the veteran guard dealing with an illness. However, he's trending toward playing against the Clippers on Wednesday. The 30-year-old is averaging 11.6 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game, shooting 40.1 percent from the floor and 30.5 percent from beyond the arc.

Rozier is not in the Heat's starting lineup against the Timberwolves on Friday.

Rozier will cede his spot in the starting lineup to Pelle Larsson on Friday. Rozier started in the Heat's last two games and averaged 13.5 points, 3.5 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals over 37.5 minutes while shooting just 30.8 percent from the floor (including 13.3 percent from three on 7.5 3PA/G).

Rozier finished with 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Monday's 106-90 victory over the Wizards.

With Davion Mitchell (quadriceps) on the shelf, Rozier made his first start since Jan. 21 and delivered solid numbers. The veteran guard hadn't played more than 25 minutes in a game since Feb. 7 as he dealt with an illness off and on last month, but Rozier's performance Monday is a strong sign he's 100 percent healthy. Once Mitchell is cleared to return though, Rozier will likely slide back to the second unit.

Rozier will enter the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Wizards.

Rozier has been phased out of Miami's rotation recently, but a multitude of injures to the starting lineup have forced the team to thrust the veteran guard into the first unit. Across his last six games as a starter, Rozier has averaged 9.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.8 three-pointers in 27.2 minutes.

Rozier was a DNP-Coach's Decision for Monday's and Wednesday's games against the Hawks.

Rozier's play briefly improved in late January and early February, but he averaged 5.3 points on 30.0 percent shooting in his final three appearances before these DNP-CDs. The trade deadline acquisitions of Davion Mitchell and Andrew Wiggins seem to have pushed Rozier out of coach Erik Spoelstra's rotation for the time being.

Rozier (illness) registered five points (2-4 FG, 1-2 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 16 minutes in Friday's 120-111 win over the Raptors.

After missing the Heat's final two games before the All-Star break due to a stomach illness, Rozier was back in action for the team's first contest of the second half. He played his fewest minutes since Dec. 7 in the win, and the lower playing time could become a recurring trend with head coach Erik Spoelstra having relied heavily upon newly acquired guard Davion Mitchell in the backcourt alongside Tyler Herro. Mitchell played 30-plus minutes Friday for the third contest in a row, leaving little time left over for Rozier, Duncan Robinson (23 minutes) and Jaime Jaquez (zero minutes).

Rozier (illness) has been cleared to play in Friday's game against the Raptors.

After missing the last two games for the Heat due to an illness, Rozier will be available to get back on the floor Friday for Miami in Toronto. The veteran scorer should give the team an offensive boost off the bench, as he's scored at least 19 points in four of the last six games he's played.

Rozier (illness) won't play in Thursday's game versus the Mavericks.

Rozier will miss his second straight contest Thursday due to a stomach bug that is going around the Heat's locker room. Davion Mitchell and Alec Burks should continue to receive increased playing time in his absence. Rozier's next chance to suit up will come after the All-Star break against Dallas on Feb. 21.

Rozier (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier is battling stomach flu and won't be able to play Wednesday against Oklahoma City. The veteran guard is averaging 12.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game, shooting 40.7 percent from the floor and 30.6 percent from beyond the arc.

Rozier is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Thunder due to a stomach illness, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Duncan Robinson was also a late addition to the injury report with a stomach illness, and both players were held out of the morning shootaround. Meanwhile, Tyler Herro (illness) and Jaime Jaquez are still carrying questionable tags. With so many players iffy to suit up, this is a situation to monitor closely.

Rozier registered 20 points (6-15 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes off the bench during Friday's 102-86 loss to the Nets.

The Heat were shorthanded in the wake of the Jimmy Butler deal, and Rozier wound up leading the team in scoring. The veteran guard has been on a role of late, scoring at least 19 points and draining multiple three-pointers in four of the last five games -- a stretch in which Rozier is averaging 17.2 points, 4.4 boards, 3.0 assists and 3.0 threes in 30.6 minutes a contest while shooting 41.7 percent from beyond the arc. Given his recent production, his role and usage may not change much once Andrew Wiggins and Davion Mitchell are cleared to join the Miami lineup.

Rozier logged 19 points (7-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds and four assists across 33 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 victory over the Spurs.

Rozier led the second unit in scoring once again, reaching double figures for the fourth consecutive contest. The 30-year-old has seen a decline in his scoring numbers this season, though he has still provided a valuable spark for the Heat off the bench of late. Over his last five outings, Rozier has averaged 14.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.2 assists across 28.8 minutes per game.

Rozier isn't on the injury report for Saturday's game versus the Spurs, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Despite Rozier being under federal investigation for potentially cooperating in an illegal sports betting scheme in 2023 while with the Hornets, the 30-year-old guard should be available to play against San Antonio on Saturday. Rozier should continue to come off the bench, where he has averaged 14.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 28.4 minutes across his last five appearances.

Rozier is under federal investigation for potentially cooperating in an illegal sports betting scheme in 2023 while with the Hornets, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports. A statement by NBA spokesman Mike Bass noted "The league conducted an investigation and did not find a violation of NBA rules. We are now aware of an investigation by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York related to this matter and have been cooperating with that investigation."

While it's encouraging the NBA conducted its own investigation and found no wrongdoing, this is a situation that needs to be monitored after Jontay Porter received a lifetime ban in April 2024 for violating the league's gaming rules. Miami's next game is Saturday in San Antonio. At the time of Haynes' report, there's no information regarding whether or not Rozier will be available for the weekend's matchup.

Rozier racked up 22 points (8-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 126-106 loss to Cleveland.

The veteran guard led the bench in scoring while tying Tyler Herro with a team-high 22 points. Moreover, Rozier was efficient while securing his fourth 20-plus-point outing of the 2024-25 campaign. The 30-year-old has run with the second unit in each of the Heat's last four outings, during which he has averaged 13.3 points, 5.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists in 27.8 minutes per contest.

Rozier will come off the bench in Thursday's game against the Bucks.

The veteran guard drew the start for Tyler Herro (groin) during Tuesday's loss to Portland, though he'll retreat to the bench in Herro's return. Over his last 10 outings (eight starts), Rozier has averaged 11.4 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.0 assists while shooting 41.3 percent from the field in 27.7 minutes per game.

Rozier totaled nine points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt), one rebound, three assists and one steal in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 116-107 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Rozier drew the start for Tyler Herro who missed this game with a groin injury. His fantasy managers could be losing patience, as he's had a brutal January. In his last 11 games, Rozier has been outside the top-200 in nine-category formats with averages of 11.8 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.1 three-pointers on 42.1 percent shooting from the field.

Rozier will start Tuesday's game against Portland, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel

Rozier will start for the Heat in Tyler Herro's (groin) absence Tuesday. Rozier has averaged 12.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.5 threes in 31.1 minutes over 20 games as a starter this season.

Rozier finished with 20 points (7-14 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 128-107 win over the Spurs.

Sunday marked Rozier's first 20-point display since the Dec. 21 loss to Orlando. It's still been a disappointing 2024-25 campaign overall for the veteran guard during his first full season with the Heat, as he's bounced in and out of Miami's starting lineup all year long. Across 17 outings as a reserve, Rozier has averaged 12.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.6 threes in 25.9 minutes. It's unclear how head coach Erik Spoelstra will handle the starting shooting guard spot going forward, but Rozier has been far more efficient from the second unit than with the first five.

Rozier isn't starting in Friday's game against the Nuggets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

After starting in Miami's previous seven games, Rozier will cede his spot in the first unit to sharpshooter Duncan Robinson on Friday. Over his last six games, Rozier is averaging 10.7 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.0 threes in 30.5 minutes, but the veteran guard's minutes could take a slight dip against Denver.

Rozier chipped in 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and two assists in 23 minutes during Monday's 109-98 loss to the Clippers.

Rozier has started in each of the Heat's last six games, but the results have been a bit underwhelming, as he's failed to reach the 15-point plateau in all but one of those outings. The backcourt of Rozier and Tyler Herro hasn't been as productive as expected, and Rozier has been the one who hasn't lived up to expectations this season. Through 19 starts this season, he's averaging 12.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists across 31.4 minutes per game.

Rozier finished with eight points (4-9 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and one rebound in 18 minutes during Saturday's 136-100 loss to the Jazz.

Rozier moved into the starting lineup, replacing Jimmy Butler who was missing due to a seven-game suspension. Despite the promotion, Rozier struggled to find any rhythm, continuing what has been a rough season to this point. Across the first 29 games of the season, Rozier is averaging just 12.0 points and 1.6 three-pointers in 28.4 minutes per game.

Rozier is in the Heat's starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Jazz.

Rozier will make his 13th start of the regular season Saturday due to the suspension of Jimmy Butler. Over his first 12 starts, Rozier averaged 13.0 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.4 assists over 32.3 minutes per game.

Rozier posted 16 points (6-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven assists and five rebounds over 30 minutes during Thursday's 128-115 loss to Indiana.

Rozier tied his season-high mark in assists during his return from a one-game suspension. The veteran guard struggled from beyond the arc in the loss, and he is on pace for his worst three-point shooting season (31.5 percent) since the 2015-16 campaign. Over his last five outings, Rozier has averaged 15.2 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists across 30.0 minutes per game.

The NBA suspended Rozier on Tuesday for one game without pay for his involvement in an on-court altercation during Sunday's game against the Heat.

After Tyler Herro leaned into Amen Thompson during the fourth quarter of the Heat's 104-100 win Sunday, Thompson grabbed Herro by the jersey and threw him to the floor, resulting in a multi-player altercation. Thompson, Herro, Rozier and Jalen Green were all ejected from the game but only Thompson and Rozier received suspensions, with the former forced to miss two games. Rozier's next chance to suit up will come Thursday versus Indiana. In his absence, Alec Burks and Jaime Jaquez are candidates for increased roles.

Rozier was ejected from Sunday's game against the Rockets, Jackson Gatlin of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Rozier was ejected following a scuffle late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest against the Heat. He finishes the game with 14 points (6-19 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one steal and an assist in 38 minutes.

Rozier will start Sunday's game against the Rockets, Wes Goldberg of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Rozier steps into the starting lineup due to Duncan Robinson (foot) being out of the iineup. In his previous 12 starts this season, Rozier has averaged 12.9 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 31.8 minutes per contest.

Rozier (knee) is available for Saturday's game versus the Hawks.

Rozier has been upgraded from questionable to available Saturday despite dealing with left knee inflammation. The veteran guard should continue to operate as one of Miami's primary bench options in the backcourt.

Rozier (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against Atlanta.

Rozier is dealing with left knee inflammation, though he is expected to suit up for Saturday's contest. Over his last five outings, the veteran guard has averaged 12.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.0 steals across 28.8 minutes per game.

Rozier (knee) is available for Thursday's game versus the Magic, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier has been upgraded from questionable to available Thursday after missing Miami's previous contest due to left knee inflammation. The 30-year-old guard is averaging 10.9 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 26.0 minutes across his last 10 outings.

Rozier (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against Orlando, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier is at risk of missing his second consecutive contest due to left knee inflammation. Jimmy Butler (conditioning/personal) is doubtful, while Josh Richardson (heel) has been ruled out, putting Miami's backcourt in flux.

Rozier (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Nets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier was initially listed as probable for Monday's game due to left knee inflammation, but he will observe the contest in street clothes. Rozier's absence opens the door for Dru Smith and Alec Burks to see more playing time. Rozier's next opportunity to play will be against the Magic on Thursday.

Rozier is probable for Monday's game against the Nets with left knee inflammation.

Rozier was a very late addition to the injury report, so fantasy managers will want to confirm his status prior to the game. He's had a tough December so far, posting averages of 10.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.3 three-pointers on 40.0 percent shooting from the field.

Rozier notched 23 points (8-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and two assists in 33 minutes during Saturday's 121-114 loss to the Magic.

Rozier has had a disappointing season in 2024-25, but this game was a step in the right direction, as the veteran guard surpassed the 20-point plateau for the first time in the campaign. Rozier's struggles this season haven't gone unnoticed. He opened the year in a starting role but hasn't been part of the first unit since Nov. 17, when he had nine points (4-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and four boards across 27 minutes. Furthermore, Rozier was coming off four single-digit scoring efforts in his previous seven outings, so in a way, this 23-point effort almost came out of nowhere.

Rozier logged 11 points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, six assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Monday's 125-124 overtime loss to the Pistons.

Rozier dished out his most assists since dropping a season-high seven dimes against the Knicks on Oct. 30. However, it's been mixed results for the veteran guard since he moved to the bench. Over 10 straight games as a reserve, Rozier has averaged 10.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 25.0 minutes per game. The Heat are 6-4 during that stretch.

Rozier produced 14 points (6-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt), nine rebounds, three assists and one block across 28 minutes during Sunday's 122-113 win over Cleveland.

Coming off a scoreless outing in 16 minutes during Saturday's win over the Suns, Rozier provided a lift with 14 points off the bench and crashed the boards for a season-high nine rebounds Sunday. In his last eight games since moving to the second unit, the veteran guard is averaging a modest 10.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.9 three-pointers in 23.8 minutes per contest. Rozier is sinking 42.9 percent of his threes during this stretch, however, so the move to the bench appears to have aided his efficiency following a slow start the season, but his counting stats will likely continue to take a hit with the decreased playing time.

Rozier finished Sunday's 119-116 loss to the Raptors with 17 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound and five assists across 29 minutes.

The Heat are choosing to continue with a backcourt of Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson, but it's hard to stem Rozier's flow of production as the first guard off the bench. He lost the starting gig after a two-game injury absence, and it's unclear if the Heat will revert back to a scheme where Rozier returns and Herro slides back to his customary role at shooting guard. Miami has gone an even 2-2 in the current scenario.

Rozier (foot) is available for Friday's game versus the Raptors, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

Rozier has been upgraded from probable to available Friday despite continuing to deal with a foot injury. The 30-year-old guard will likely make his third straight appearance coming off the bench.

Rozier (foot) is probable for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Rozier missed two straight games due to right foot neuroma and has come off the bench in both appearances since returning to action. On Tuesday, Rozier scored 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT) in 21 minutes during a loss to Milwaukee, and on Wednesday, he scored seven points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) in 25 minutes during a win over Charlotte.

Rozier (foot) tallied 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds and one block across 21 minutes Tuesday in the Heat's 106-103 loss to the Bucks.

Though Rozier had missed only two games due to right foot neuroma, the Heat still elected to bring him off the bench Tuesday for the first time all season in his return. Rozier was mostly held quiet until the fourth quarter, when he scored 13 of his points on perfect shooting from the field. The 30-year-old guard doesn't look as though he'll face any limitations in the second leg of Miami's back-to-back set Wednesday in Charlotte, as he's listed as available for the contest.

Rozier isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Bucks.

Despite being upgraded to available after missing Miami's last two contests with a foot injury, Rozier will come off the bench for the first time this season Tuesday. Duncan Robinson is set to make his third straight start instead.

Rozier (foot) is available for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.

As expected, Rozier has been upgraded from probable to available and will return to action following a two-game absence due to a foot injury. In November (eight appearances), Rozier is averaging 10.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists while shooting only 35.3 percent from the field.

Rozier (foot) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Bucks.

Rozier was expected to play Sunday against the Mavericks but was surprisingly downgraded from probable to out, so his probable tag for Tuesday doesn't bring a great deal of optimism. If Rozier remains out, Duncan Robinson should draw another start. If Rozier plays, he may face some restrictions after missing two games.

Rozier (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Mavericks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier has been downgraded from probable to out while dealing with right foot soreness. The 30-year-old was previously expected to play after an MRI on his foot came back clean, though the injury is not expected to be a long-term setback. With Rozier sidelined for a second consecutive game, Duncan Robinson will likely receive the starting nod again.

Rozier (foot) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against Dallas.

As expected, Rozier is probable for the contest after an MRI on his right foot Thursday came back clean. The guard could be tasked with a larger role Sunday if Jimmy Butler (illness) can't play.

Rozier (foot), who is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Mavericks, participated in Friday's practice, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier underwent an MRI on his right foot that came back clean and he was able to participate in Friday's practice. The 30-year-old missed Monday's win over Philadelphia, and in his last five outings he has averaged 10.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.2 steals across 31.4 minutes per game.

Rozier said Thursday that an MRI on his right foot came back clean and he expects to return to practice Friday as well as play in Sunday's game versus the Mavericks, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier missed Miami's last contest due to right foot discomfort but appears to have avoided a serious injury. If the 30-year-old guard is able to suit up against Dallas, he will likely reclaim his starting spot from Duncan Robinson.

Rozier will not play Monday against the 76ers due to right foot discomfort.

Monday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so it's possible the Heat are being cautious. Rozier has been ice cold in November with a 35.3 percent shooting mark, so this injury could be a reason why. Fortunately for Miami, Jimmy Butler (ankle) has been cleared to return for Monday's game.

Rozier racked up nine points (4-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 27 minutes during Sunday's 119-110 loss to the Pacers.

Rozier's cold streak continued Sunday as his shot eluded him once again. November has not been his month, as he's shooting 35.3 percent from the field and 25.6 percent from beyond the arc in his last eight games. His counting stats have suffered too, as he's averaging 10.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists in that span.

Rozier amassed seven points (2-10 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 115-112 loss to the Suns.

Rozier couldn't get the lid off the basket, but he was able to contribute in other facets. He tied for the second most rebounds on the team and was one of three Heat players to accrue at least five assists. Additionally, Rozier finished with a team-high plus-11 plus-minus. Through seven games, Rozier is averaging 14.7 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.4 assists across 32.1 minutes.

Rozier had 16 points (5-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 116-107 loss to the Knicks.

Rozier didn't have his best shooting performance, and this 16-point mark was his lowest mark of the season, but that shouldn't undermine the strong start the veteran floor general is having. Through four games, Rozier is averaging 18.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 4.5 assists per contest while shooting 42.4 percent from deep.

Rozier finished Monday's 106-98 win over Detroit with 20 points (7-16 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal over 33 minutes.

Rozier scored a season-high 20 points, continuing his promising start to the season. Across the first three games, he is averaging 19.3 points per game, adding 5.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 3.3 three-pointers. There is room to improve on the defensive end, where he is currently delivering just 0.3 steals per contest. Rozier was typically available in the 100 range during drafts, a position that looks as though could end up being a bargain.

Rozier finished with 19 points (5-15 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds, five assists and two blocks across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 116-97 loss to Orlando.

Rozier joined the Heat before the trade deadline last season and made an immediate impact. He enters his 10th NBA season as the Heat's answer to replace Kyle Lowry, who was traded to the Sixers. Rozier is a definite upgrade from the aging Lowry, and is poised to thrive alongside Tyler Herro in the backcourt and flash some the excellent production he displayed during his tenures with Charlotte and Boston.

Rozier will start Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Magic.

As expected, Rozier opens up the 2024-25 regular season as Miami's starting point guard, and he'll be joined by Tyler Herro, Jimmy Butler, Nikola Jovic and Bam Adebayo in the first unit. Rozier averaged 16.4 points, 4.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game with the Heat last season.

Rozier (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Magic, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

As expected, Rozier is healthy to start the regular season after resting during the preseason finale. After a midseason trade to Miami, Rozier made 31 regular-season appearances for the Heat and averaged 16.4 points, 4.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 31.5 minutes per game.

Rozier won't play in Friday's preseason finale versus Memphis for rest purposes, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier hasn't suffered any injury but the Heat are giving most of their starters a rest day for the preseason finale. Fantasy managers can expect Rozier to re-enter the lineup for the Heat's regular-season opener against Orlando on Oct. 23.

Rozier finished with 11 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 17 minutes in Sunday's 101-99 preseason win over the Pelicans.

Rozier produced a solid outing, coming in third for the team high in points behind Tyler Herro (12) and Duncan Robinson (12). The Heat acquired Rozier late in January of 2024, and he carved out a significant role in 31 regular-season appearances (30 starts), during which he averaged 16.4 points, 4.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 1.0 steals across 31.5 minutes per game. The 30-year-old is set to serve as the club's starting point guard once again, and he is expected to be locked into that spot with Alec Burks (rest) coming off the bench.

Rozier, who missed the end of the 2023-24 season with a neck injury, has been fully cleared to play, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier missed the final 11 games of the season with a neck strain, but he'll have a full offseason with a clean bill of health to work on his game. Rozier made a total of 31 appearances for the Heat during the 2023-24 regular season, posting averages of 16.4 points, 4.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 2.1 three-pointers.

Rozier (neck) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Celtics, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier will miss an 11th straight game due to a neck strain. Jimmy Butler (knee) and Jaime Jaquez (hip) are also out for the potential elimination game, so Delon Wright, Patty Mills, Kevin Love and Duncan Robinson are all candidates for increased roles.

Rozier (neck) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Celtics.

Rozier will miss a 10th straight game due to a neck strain. Coach Erik Spoelstra said Sunday morning that he doesn't know if Rozier will play in the opening-round series. "[Rozier] is day-to-day. When it changes. I'll let you know," Spoelstra added. Delon Wright (personal) is probable after missing Saturday's Game 3 loss and should help soak up some of Rozier's missing minutes.

Rozier (neck) won't play in Saturday's Game 3 against the Celtics.

Rozier's absence streak will extend to nine games Saturday due to neck spasms. With Delon Wright (personal) questionable, Patty Mills could receive his first minutes of the series against Boston. Rozier's next chance to suit up is Game 4 on Monday.

Rozier (neck) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 2 against the Celtics, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier will now miss his eighth straight game, and it is unclear whether the team will look to rush him back for the remainder of the series without Jimmy Butler (knee). The 30-year-old is considered week-to-week and against the Celtics it would not come as a surprise for Rozier to miss the entirety of the series. With Rozier out, Delon Wright, Duncan Robinson and Patty Mills are all likely candidates to see an uptick in playing time.

Rozier (neck) is not considered healthy enough to return for Game 1 of the Heat's Round 1 series versus the Celtics at this point and is considered week-to-week, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

While Rozier has not officially been ruled out for Game 1 yet, that appears to be where things are trending. Fortunately, the neck injury is not considered career threatening. With Jimmy Butler (knee) also sidelined for the immediate future, Tyler Herro figures to be the primary beneficiary from an offensive workload perspective. The likes of Delon Wright, Patty Mills, Duncan Robinson, Caleb Martin and Jaime Jaquez also figure to benefit in some fashion. The possibility of a playoff sighting for Rozier will presumably depend on how long the Heat can stay afloat against the daunting Celtics.

Rozier (neck) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Bulls.

Rozier, who will miss a sixth straight contest, has been diagnosed with a neck sprain rather than neck spasms, so it seems the injury is more severe than initially expected. The loss of Rozier will be huge for the Heat, and it will translate in a higher usage rate for Tyler Herro, while there will be more minutes available for Patty Mills and possibly Delon Wright.

Rozier (neck) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Play-In Game against the 76ers, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier missed the final four games of the regular season due to neck spasms and will remain sidelined for the beginning of postseason play. Caleb Martin has been starting at shooting guard recently, but Duncan Robinson (back) is expected to be available following a four-game absence of his own, so it's unclear who'll share the backcourt with Tyler Herro.

Rozier (neck) didn't practice Tuesday, Zachary Weinberger of Clutch Points reports.

Rozier missed the final four games of the regular season due to neck spasms and still isn't practicing ahead of Wednesday's Play-In Game against the 76ers. Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported Monday that Rozier was getting more tests done on his neck, but the Heat have been cautiously optimistic about the shooting guard's availability. Duncan Robinson (back) and Kevin Love (arm) were both limited during Tuesday's practice.

Rozier (neck) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Raptors, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Rozier will miss his fourth straight game Sunday while dealing with neck spasms. Caleb Martin or Duncan Robinson (back) will likely continue to start in his absence. With Rozier being ruled out for Miami's regular-season finale, his next chance to suit up will come in the Play-In Tournament.

Rozier (neck) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Raptors, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Rozier will miss a third straight game due to neck spasms. Caleb Martin should draw another start, while Delon Wright and Patty Mills are candidates for more minutes off the bench. Rozier's last chance to suit up during the regular season will come Sunday in a rematch against Toronto.

Rozier (neck) is listed as Tim Reynolds of Associated Press for Friday's game versus the Raptors, Tim reports.

Rozier is in danger of missing his third straight contest Friday while dealing with neck spasms. Delon Wright and Patty Mills will likely continue to receive increased playing time if Rozier is ruled out against Toronto.

Rozier (neck) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Mavericks.

Rozier will miss his second straight contest Wednesday after being downgraded from questionable to out due to neck spasms. With Duncan Robinson (back) also unavailable, Tyler Herro and Caleb Martin will likely start yet again.

Rozier (neck) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Rozier tried to play through the neck issue Sunday but scored just four points (2-7 FG) in 22 minutes during a loss to Indiana and was sidelined for Tuesday's win over Atlanta. With Duncan Robinson (back) unlikely to play, Rozier's availability becomes key, though Tyler Herro's recent return has provided a boost to Miami's backcourt.

Rozier (neck) has been downgraded to out for Tuesday's game against the Hawks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier has been downgraded completely and now will miss Tuesday's contest against the Hawks, and his availability to face the Mavericks on Wednesday should be in question as well. With Rozier out, expect Patty Mills to feature in the backcourt alongside Tyler Herro.

Rozier (neck) has been downgraded to doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Hawks, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Rozier was initially listed as a game-time call for Tuesday, but the downgrade only a few hours before tipoff at 7:30 p.m. ET isn't a good sign for his availability. In case Rozier doesn't start Tuesday, then Patty Mills could be in line to see a bigger workload and even potentially start alongside Tyler Herro in the backcourt.

Rozier (neck) is a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against Atlanta, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rozier did not participate in the team's morning shootaround prior to Tuesday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff, and he expressed that he wants to be cautious with his neck spasms given that Miami closes a back-to-back Wednesday versus Dallas. His status could be determined during pregame warmups for a Miami backcourt that will be without Duncan Robinson (back) Tuesday.

Rozier is questionable for Tuesday's game versus Atlanta due to neck spasms.

Rozier was able to play through his neck issue Sunday against the Pacers, but it's still bothering him. It's worth noting that Tuesday's game is the front end of a back-to-back set, so a maintenance day could potentially be on the table.

Rozier (neck) is available and will start Sunday's game against the Pacers, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Rozier was a late addition to the injury report Sunday morning due to neck stiffness but will ultimately play through the issue. He's appeared in 20 straight games and averaged 18.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.1 steals in 32.9 minutes during that stretch. However, Tyler Herro's recent return will likely mean less usage for Rozier moving forward.

Rozier is questionable for Sunday's game against the Pacers due to neck stiffness.

Rozier has been playing through a left knee contusion, appearing in 20 straight games and averaging 18.9 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.1 steals in 32.9 minutes during that stretch. However, he's now dealing with a new injury and is at risk of being sidelined. If Rozier is ruled out, Tyler Herro, who returned Friday in Houston following a lengthy absence, would likely slide back into the starting lineup.

Rozier (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Rockets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

As expected, Rozier and Duncan Robinson (back) have been upgraded from probable to available, but Tyler Herro (foot) remains a game-time decision. Rozier scored 22 points (7-20 FG) in 33 minutes during Thursday's loss to the 76ers and has averaged 19.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 33.0 minutes over his last 19 appearances (all starts).

Rozier is probable for Friday's game against the Rockets due to a left knee contusion.

Rozier continues to play through the knee contusion, and Friday shouldn't be different, even if it's the second night of a back-to-back set. He dropped 22 points (7-20 FG) in 33 minutes during Thursday's 109-105 loss to the Sixers and has averaged 19.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 33.3 minutes over his last 19 appearances (all starts).

Rozier finished with 22 points (7-20 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 33 minutes in Thursday's 109-105 loss to Philadelphia.

Rozier led all players in Thursday's contest in threes made while posting a team-high point total to boost the Miami offense in a losing effort. Rozier has connected on six or more threes in eight games this season, including in three of his last four games. He has now surpassed the 20-point mark in four straight outings, continuing his hot stretch offensively as of late.

Rozier ended with a game-high 34 points (10-15 FG, 8-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 109-99 victory over the Knicks.

It was the veteran guard's best scoring performance since he joined the Heat, and his best of the season since he poured in 39 points against the Bulls on Jan. 8 while he was still a Hornet. Rozier has produced 20 or more points in three straight games and five of the last eight, and he's averaged 21.1 points, 4.3 boards, 3.9 threes, 2.9 assists and 1.0 steals over that stretch while shooting 49.2 percent (31-for-63) from beyond the arc.

Rozier (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

As expected, Rozier has been upgraded from probable to available despite a knee contusion. He's appeared in 17 straight games and averaged 18.2 points, 4.5 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 33.2 minutes during that stretch.

Rozier is probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks due to a left knee contusion.

Rozier hasn't missed a game in over a month, and it seems unlikely that his knee issue will impact his availability for Tuesday's matchup. Across his last five appearances, he's averaged 18.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 31.4 minutes per game.

Rozier ended with 27 points (11-19 FG, 5-11 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals over 35 minutes during Sunday's 119-107 win over the Wizards.

Rozier led the way for the Heat in this one and posted his fourth game with 20 or more points across his last seven appearances, as the veteran guard is embracing a bigger role on offense ahead of the final weeks of the regular season. Rozier enters the final two weeks of the campaign with averages of 18.4 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game over his last 10 appearances.

Rozier accumulated 22 points (8-17 FG, 6-10 3Pt), three rebounds, six assists and one steal across 27 minutes during Friday's 142-82 win over Portland.

The veteran guard scored at least 20 points for the third time in the last six games as the Heat set a new franchise mark for the largest win in team history. Rozier has averaged 18.0 points, 4.2 boards, 3.0 assists and 3.0 threes over that stretch while shooting 43.9 percent from beyond the arc.

Rozier posted 14 points (6-14 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Sunday's 121-84 victory over the Cavaliers.

Rozier continues to be a reliable scoring option for the Heat, and he has settled in well as the team's third-best offensive alternative behind Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. Rozier is averaging 17.6 points, 4.7 assists and 4.6 rebounds per game since the All-Star break.

Rozier chipped in 13 points (5-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes during Friday's 111-88 loss to the Pelicans.

Rozier was barely noticeable in the loss, scoring fewer than 20 points for the sixth time in the past eight games. Although he remains a top-60 player across the season, his value has taken a hit since joining Miami. While he remains a must-roster player, managers should temper their expectations on both ends of the floor.

Rozier registered 20 points (8-21 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 98-91 loss to the 76ers.

Rozier finished just two rebounds shy of recording a double-double, though he'd be more likely to reach that feat with assists rather than boards on a regular basis. The veteran point guard had to take on a bigger responsibility on offense with Jimmy Butler (foot) sidelined, which resulted in Rozier reaching the 20-point mark for just the third time since joining Miami in late January. He's averaging 15.3 points per game in 21 appearances with the Heat.

Rozier registered 17 points (8-20 FG, 1-6 3Pt), six rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Sunday's 104-101 win over Detroit.

The veteran guard came up just short of his second double-double of the season. Rozier missed four games sandwiched around the All-Star break due to a knee injury, but that's the only thing that's slowed him down since the beginning of February -- he's scored in double digits in 15 straight games, averaging 16.7 points, 5.6 assists, 4.9 boards, 1.3 threes and 0.9 steals.

Rozier had 27 points (10-17 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, 11 assists and one steal in 40 minutes during Thursday's 114-108 loss to the Mavericks.

It was Rozier's first double-double in 15 games since joining the Heat, although he recorded three for the Hornets prior to the January trade that sent him south. The 29-year-old guard has been effective since returning from a knee injury in late February, averaging 19.2 points, 6.8 assists, 3.8 boards, 2.4 threes and 0.8 steals over the last five games while shooting 41.4 percent (12-for-29) from beyond the arc.

Rozier ended with 19 points (6-15 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal across 33 minutes during Thursday's 103-97 loss to the Nuggets.

Rozier scored 19 points in his two appearances since returning from a four-game absence sandwiched between the All-Star break. The veteran floor general has quickly earned a starting role in Miami's backcourt, and he should be a consistent source of scoring and playmaking stats, even if the efficiency is sometimes lacking. Rozier is averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game since the beginning of February.

Rozier racked up 19 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 106-96 win over the Trail Blazers.

Rozier sat out each of Miami's previous four contests due to a knee injury, but he didn't look rusty in his return to the court Tuesday. In fact, he made half of his field-goal tries for just the second time over his past seven contests after coming into game shooting a meager 37.0 percent from the field in February. Rozier didn't seem to have a minutes restriction given that he played 30 minutes in the victory, so fantasy managers need not wait to insert him back into their lineups.

Rozier (knee) will play Tuesday versus Portland, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Rozier is officially cleared to return from a knee sprain that has cost him Miami's past four games. His brief absence is an amazing development for the Heat after what looked to be a serious injury in the moment. Rozier was questionable for Monday's win over Sacramento, so it appears that his ramp up has gone smoothly and he could be in line for a standard workload Tuesday.

Rozier (knee) will not play Monday against the Kings, Anthony Chiang of the Miami Herald reports.

Miami is going to be very shorthanded Monday, as Jimmy Butler is suspended and Tyler Herro is out with a knee issue. Delon Wright is set to make his debut Monday, and he's likely going to be asked to soak up a ton of minutes right out of the gate.

Rozier (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against Sacramento.

Rozier missed a third consecutive game due to a knee injury Friday against the Pelicans, but it's encouraging that he's deemed questionable for Monday's matchup. If he's available, he may face some limitations following his absence.

Rozier (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against New Orleans, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.

Rozier was seen without a brace during Thursday's practice session, but he'll be forced to miss Miami's first game following the All-Star break. He appears to be trending in the right direction and will travel with the Heat for their upcoming road trip. His next chance to suit up will be Monday against Sacramento.

Rozier (knee) was participating in Thursday's practice without a brace or wrap, Wes Goldberg of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.

Rozier missed Miami's final two games before the All-Star break due to a right knee sprain he suffered against Boston. While Rozier didn't participate in any live drills Thursday, it doesn't appear as though he is dealing with a major injury. Fantasy managers should look out for an official injury report to clarify his status for Friday's matchup with the Pelicans.

Rozier (knee) is considered week-to-week after an MRI confirmed that he avoided a serious injury, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

The Heat have diagnosed Rozier with a sprained right knee, and he'll be re-evaluated on a weekly basis. While this makes for a murky timetable, it means we won't see him until at least after the All-Star break. With Jimmy Butler (personal) out the next two games, Miami will need to heavily rely on Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson, Jaime Jaquez and Caleb Martin.

Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra said after Sunday's 110-106 loss to the Celtics that Rozier (knee) will undergo an MRI on Monday, ESPN.com reports.

Rozier generated 13 points, six assists and four rebounds in 24 minutes before he exited with 4:43 remaining in the third quarter, when he landed awkwardly on his right leg while driving to the basket. He drew a foul on the play but was unable to take his two free throws, resulting in him being ruled out for the rest of the contest. Though the Heat attributed his departure to a right knee injury, the MRI should provide more clarity on the extent of the issue. Rozier hasn't been ruled out for the Heat's back-to-back set Tuesday and Wednesday in Milwaukee and Philadelphia, respectively, though the fact that he's being sent in for an MRI doesn't bode well for his chances of playing in either contest.

Rozier suffered a right knee injury in the third quarter of Sunday's game against Boston and has been ruled out for the remainder of the game, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.

Rozier was unable to take free throws following the incident, therefore ruling him out for the remainder of the contest. Rozier slashed into the paint and landed on his right leg in an off-balance fashion, crumpling to the ground and ultimately being helped to the locker room in the aftermath of a scary incident. He and Josh Richardson (shoulder) both suffered in-game injuries Sunday, leaving Miami's backcourt extremely shorthanded while Jimmy Butler (personal) is away from the team.

Rozier registered 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 121-95 victory over Orlando.

The 29-year-old point guard produced another solid all-around performance for his new team. In his last six starts for the Heat, Rozier is averaging 14.0 points, 6.2 assists, 5.5 boards, 1.2 threes and 0.8 steals, but his efficiency (38.2 FG% and 25.9 3Pt%) and volume (12.7 FG attempts per game) are way down from the numbers he was putting up with the Hornets.

Rozier posted 17 points (7-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and two steals in 38 minutes during Sunday's 103-95 loss to the Clippers.

The 29-year-old guard continues to adjust to his new system and teammates. Rozier has scored 15 or more points in three of the last four games, and he's produced at least five boards and five assists in three straight. On the other hand, he's shooting just 21.9 percent (7-for-32) from three-point range in seven contests as a member of the Heat, so he's not fully comfortable yet.

Rozier had 21 points (8-14 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists and one block in 27 minutes during Monday's 118-105 loss to the Suns.

It was Rozier's best scoring effort by far since being traded to the Heat -- he'd managed just 26 points total in his first three games for his new club. The veteran guard also broke out of a shooting slump that had seen him go 3-for-29 (10.3 percent) from three-point range over his prior six contests. The 29-year-old guard is still getting comfortable in Miami, but he could b e gearing up for a big February.

Rozier totaled seven points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Thursday's 143-110 loss to the Celtics.

The Heat struggled to keep up with the Celtics offensively during Thursday's matchup, and Rozier had an inefficient showing during his second appearance with Miami. It was encouraging to see him take on a starting role after coming off the bench Wednesday against the Grizzlies in his team debut, but he's now been held below 10 points in back-to-back appearances with the Heat after scoring in double figures in 29 of his 30 appearances this year before being traded.

Rozier will move into the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Celtics.

Scary Terry came off the bench in his Miami debut Wednesday, but he'll be replacing Josh Richardson in the first unit Thursday evening and will be joined by Tyler Herro, Haywood Highsmith, Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo. He should be able to flirt with minutes in the 30s as a starter, so this is a positive development for his fantasy outlook.

Rozier accumulated nine points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 105-96 loss to the Grizzlies.

In his first game with Miami since being traded by the Hornets on Tuesday, Rozier shot just 27.3 percent from the field and committed three turnovers. He came off the bench in Wednesday's loss, but he could slot into the starting lineup for Thursday's contest against the Celtics. Rozier is averaging a career-high 23.2 points per game this season on 45.9 percent shooting.

Rozier isn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Grizzlies.

Despite starting in all 30 of his appearances for the Hornets so far this season, Rozier will come off the bench in his Miami debut. However, the Heat are likely just easing Rozier into their rotation.

Rozier has been cleared to make his Miami debut Wednesday versus Memphis, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

It'll be interesting to see how Rozier factors into the rotation and offense in his first game with Miami, but it appears he'll be active, so he's safe to fire up in all season-long settings. His arrival may result in fewer minutes for Caleb Martin.

The Hornets are trading Rozier to the Heat on Tuesday in exchange for Kyle Lowry and a 2027 first-round pick, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Rozier is in the midst of a career-best campaign, averaging 23.2 points, 6.6 assists, 3.9 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 35.5 minutes per game across 30 appearances (all starts) for Charlotte, though most of that production came with LaMelo Ball sidelined by an ankle injury. In Miami, Rozier figures to slide right into the starting backcourt next to Tyler Herro, but the duo will presumably split ball-handling responsibilities for the most part, while Jimmy Butler operates as the go-to guy on offense. Rozier is under contract through the 2025-26 campaign.

Rozier posted 19 points (9-18 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-5 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Saturday's 97-89 loss to Philadelphia.

Rozier took over the point guard duties with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined, and the veteran did an excellent job, though his contributions were not enough to lift the Hornets to victory in this one. Rozier hasn't recorded a double-double since Dec. 11, but he finished just one board shy of reaching that feat in this one.

Rozier posted 26 points (8-23 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds and seven assists in 35 minutes during Sunday's 104-87 loss to the Heat.

Rozier led all Hornets in scoring, threes made and assists while finishing perfect from the free throw line and adding a handful of rebounds in a balanced showing. Rozier has connected on four or more threes in seven games this season, scoring 20 or more points in three of his last four contests.

Rozier registered 16 points (6-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 28 minutes during Friday's 135-99 loss to San Antonio.

Rozier struggled to make a significant impact on offense Friday, though to be fair, the Hornets struggled massively as a whole and couldn't even reach the 100-point plateau, which seems extremely common these days. Rozier should remain relevant in all formats due to his scoring and playmaking prowess, but he's also expected to see a decrease in his touches and upside now that LaMelo Ball is back in the backcourt mix.

Rozier logged 22 points (6-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Wednesday's 123-98 loss to the Kings.

The Hornets have been struggling badly of late, and while Rozier has been delivering solid numbers in the scoring column, he hasn't been doing much in other categories. His scoring figures have kept him relevant, however, as he's averaging 24.1 points per game over his last 10 appearances.

Rozier closed Monday's 119-112 overtime loss to the Bulls with 39 points (10-18 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 12-12 FT), three rebounds and eight assists over 44 minutes.

The veteran guard has suddenly become a scoring machine, topping 30 points in three of his last four games for a Hornets team that's needed someone to step up. Over his last 16 games, Rozier is averaging 26.1 points, 7.9 assists, 4.0 boards, 3.4 threes and 1.3 steals, but his usage could take a significant hit soon as LaMelo Ball (ankle) closes in on his return to the lineup.

Rozier produced 15 points (5-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Friday's 104-91 loss to Chicago.

Rozier didn't have a good performance and needed 17 shots to score 15 points, although to be fair, the entire Hornets team struggled on offense outside of Miles Bridges. Rozier at least extended his streak of games with 15 or more points to seven appearances, and he should remain an integral part of Charlotte's offensive scheme, even if he has subpar shooting performances from time to time. During that seven-game stretch, Rozier is averaging 24.9 points, 7.1 assists and 4.7 rebounds per contest.

Rozier recorded 34 points (13-24 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 111-104 win over Sacramento.

Rozier missed Charlotte's previous game due to an illness, but his performance Tuesday reflected no lingering effects of the ailment. The veteran guard led all scorers in the contest with 34 points, and he was especially productive down the stretch, pouring in 14 points in the final period. Rozier has been on a heater over his past two games, averaging 38.0 points on 58.7 percent shooting from the field while knocking down a combined 11 triples.

Rozier (illness) has been cleared to play in Tuesday's game against the Kings.

Rozier has shed his probable tag and will return from a one-game absence. With Rozier back in the lineup, Ish Smith will most likely move back to a bench role for the Hornets. In Rozier's most recent game, he erupted for 42 points against the Suns on Friday, a new season high.

Rozier (illness) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Kings.

Rozier exploded for a season-high 42 points against the Suns on Friday but was sidelined for Monday's loss to Denver due to an illness. He was initally listed as probable for that contest but was downgraded to questionable the following morning and ruled out before tipoff. If Rozier returns Tuesday, he'll likely garner heavy usage, as the Hornets remain without Gordon Hayward (calf) and LaMelo Ball (ankle).

Rozier (illness) will not play Monday against Denver.

An illness will prevent Rozier from following up on his 42-point explosion from Friday's loss to Phoenix. Charlotte closes a back-to-back set Tuesday against Sacramento, putting Rozier at risk of another absence. Cody Martin and PJ Washington will likely shoulder sizable offensive burden for the Hornets, while Nick Smith and Ish Smith will have enlarged roles in the backcourt Monday.

Rozier (illness) has been downgraded to questionable for Monday's game versus Denver.

Rozier was previously listed as probable, but it sounds like his health took a step back over night. Presumably, Rozier will warm up before a final decision is made on his status. If he's forced to sit, the Hornets will need to rely on Ish Smith, Cody Martin and Nick Smith.

Rozier is probable for Monday's game versus the Nuggets due to illness.

Rozier is under the weather, but he's expected to power through it against Denver. That's great news for a Charlotte team that is very shorthanded at the moment. Rozier has been on fire in December, averaging 24.3 points, 7.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds and 3.1 three-pointers.

Rozier supplied 42 points (14-22 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Friday's 133-119 loss to the Suns.

Rozier scored a season-high 42 points, adding at least seven assists for the fifth straight game. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) still sidelined, Rozier has been phenomenal over the last month, putting up top-20 value in standard leagues. While there has been no indication Ball will be returning any time soon, it would make sense to try and cash in on Rozier's recent production. If anyone is willing to give up a top-30 asset, it would make sense to give it serious thought.

Rozier amassed 18 points (5-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Thursday's 133-112 loss to the Lakers.

The veteran guard continues to deliver solid all-around numbers. Through 11 games in December, Rozier is averaging 22.7 points, 7.6 assists, 4.2 boards, 2.6 threes and 1.5 steals as he takes on a larger role in the Charlotte background while LaMelo Ball (ankle) is sidelined.

Rozier contributed 18 points (8-23 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal over 39 minutes during Tuesday's 113-104 loss to the Clippers.

Rozier looked fine despite a one-game absence due to a knee injury. With LaMelo Ball's (ankle) return imminent, it will be interesting to see how Rozier's role shifts during the lineup shuffle. Brandon Miller has played extremely well for a rookie, and although he is also dealing with an ankle issue, the long-term construct of the Hornets' starting five will be a situation to watch.

Rozier (knee) has been removed from the injury report in advance of Tuesday's game against the Clippers.

Rozier is good to go following a one-game absence due to a knee issue. LaMelo Ball (ankle) is beginning to ramp up physical activity, but he's officially been ruled out for Tuesday's game, so Rozier should return to a prominent role off the bat.

Rozier (knee) has been downgraded to out ahead of Saturday's game against Denver.

Rozier was initially tabbed as questionable to play Saturday, but in the end, he'll end up being ruled out altogether, providing another blow to an already deprived Hornets team when it comes to their offense. Ish Smith could be an option to start at point guard, while Rozier's next chance to play will come against the Clippers next Tuesday.

Rozier is questionable for Saturday's game against Denver with right knee soreness.

Rozier was a late addition to the injury report, and it sounds like he'll warm up before a decision on his status is made. If Rozier is unable to play, we're likely to see a lot of Ish Smith against Denver and Brandon Miller could see more usage.

Rozier closed with 25 points (10-26 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 144-113 loss to Indiana.

Rozier struggled with his efficiency in Wednesday's loss but recorded a season-high nine rebounds. The 29-year-old guard is enjoying a career year in Charlotte, as his averages of 23.2 points, 7.1 assists and 46.4 percent shooting from the field are all career highs.

Rozier (thumb) is available for Monday's game against the Raptors.

Rozier's availability was expected after he was deemed probable for Monday's matchup due to his left thumb sprain. He's been solid since returning from a groin injury that sidelined him for most of November, averaging 23.7 points, 8.2 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 35.8 minutes per game over his last 10 appearances.

Rozier (nose) is probable for Monday's game against the Raptors.

Rozier left Saturday's blowout loss to Philadelphia after being struck in the nose and didn't return. However, it appears he's avoided a worst-case scenario and will be back in action Monday. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined, Rozier has been stellar as the Hornets' starting point guard, averaging 25.7 points, 8.9 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 37.7 minutes in nine appearances before his recent injury.

Rozier is doubtful to return to Saturday's game versus the 76ers after taking a shot to the nose.

Given the lopsided score when Rozier left the game, it's safe to assume his night is over. He'll finish with six points (3-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and two turnovers in 20 minutes. Ish Smith and Nick Smith will have to hold down the fort in the fourth quarter. Rozier should be considered questionable for Monday's game against Toronto.

Rozier racked up 28 points (10-14 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, seven assists, one block and four steals in 37 minutes during Wednesday's 115-104 loss to the Heat.

Rozier led all Hornets players in threes made and scoring while handing out a team-high-tying assist mark and leading all players in steals in a well-balanced performance. Rozier has taken his game to the next level as of late, posting at least 20 points and seven assists in six straight contests. Rozier also set a season high in steals, having swiped three or more steals twice this year.

Rozier accumulated 34 points (10-17 FG, 8-13 3Pt, 6-7 FT), two rebounds and 13 assists over 39 minutes during Monday's 116-114 loss to the Heat.

Rozier was masterful Monday, creating 23 of Charlotte's 40 buckets while only logging three turnovers. He nailed a clutch three to make it a one-possession game with under a minute to play, but Miami deliberately fouled on the rest of Charlotte's possessions until Rozier missed a heave at the buzzer. Rozier is a fantasy darling, with his offensive skill being harnessed in a huge workload with tons of orchestration responsibility sans LaMelo Ball (ankle).

Rozier accumulated 21 points (7-15 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), two rebounds and 13 assists in 40 minutes during Friday's 119-116 win over the Raptors.

Rozier led all players in Friday's game in assists while finishing as the long Hornets player with a double-double in a winning effort. Rozier tied a season-high in assists, a feat he last accomplished Nov. 30 against Brooklyn. Rozier has notched a double-double in two outings this season.

Rozier ended with 25 points (10-24 FG, 1-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, seven assists, two blocks and one steal across 40 minutes during Wednesday's 111-100 loss to the Bulls.

Rozier provided a spark offensively for Charlotte, leading all players in Wednesday's game in assists while finishing second on the team in scoring and adding a handful of rebounds. Rozier has posted at least 20 points, five rebounds and five assists in three games this season, including in two straight outings.

Rozier amassed 23 points (8-20 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 35 minutes during Saturday's 123-117 loss to the Timberwolves.

Rozier led the Hornets in scoring for the second straight game, and that will likely be a common theme in the absence of LaMelo Ball (ankle). In his last three games without Ball, Rozier averaged 23.7 points, 8.3 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 3.3 three-pointers. During that stretch, Rozier has produced fourth-round value in standard nine-category leagues.

Rozier produced 37 points (13-25 FG, 7-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, 13 assists and two steals across 40 minutes during Thursday's 129-128 win over the Nets.

Rozier's 37 points mark a season high, and he finished six points shy of his career high (43). This is what fantasy managers want to see from Rozier in the absence of LaMelo Ball (ankle), as they were left disappointed when Rozier was held to 11 points in 33 minutes against the Knicks on Tuesday. Expect heavy usage from Rozier for the foreseeable future.

Rozier notched 22 points (9-15 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), one rebound, nine assists, one block and one steal in 37 minutes during Sunday's 130-117 loss to the Magic.

Rozier returned from a nine-game absence Sunday, but the Hornets didn't exactly ease him back with a massive workload due to LaMelo Ball leaving after 15 minutes with an ankle injury. Rozier has been terrific in his six appearances this season with averages of 22.0 points, 5.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists, and his upside will be even higher if Ball ends up missing more time.

Rozier (groin) will play Sunday against Orlando.

Rozier is available after missing Charlotte's previous nine contests. It's unclear if he will be on a minute restriction Sunday, but Charlotte's starting lineup returns to full strength with Rozier back. LaMelo Ball's astronomical usage has yielded 26.8 shots per game over his last five contests, but the return of Rozier will dent his ceiling.

Rozier (groin) is probable for Sunday's game against Orlando.

Rozier is on the verge of a return after missing the past nine games for Charlotte. The Hornets may be cautious with Rozier's return, so there could be some restrictions. Brandon Miller has been starting in Rozier's absence, while Ish Smith and Bryce McGowens have seen increased minutes.

Rozier (groin) is out for Wednesday's game against Washington.

Rozier will miss his ninth consecutive contest. Charlotte earned a key win over Boston on Monday, but the Hornets rank 21st in offensive rating over the past two weeks without Rozier. Ish Smith and Bryce McGowens have mainly filled his void of late.

Rozier (groin) will not play Monday against Boston.

Rozier will miss his eighth consecutive game due to a left groin strain. Brandon Miller has frequently started in his stead, and Rozier's next opportunity to take the court is Wednesday against the Wizards.

Rozier (groin) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Knicks.

Rozier will miss his seventh straight game Saturday due to a lingering groin injury. His next chance to suit up is Monday's matchup with Boston.

Rozier (groin) won't play in Friday's game versus the Bucks.

Rozier's absence streak will extended to six games due to a a left groin strain. His next chance to suit up will be Saturday's matchup with the Knicks.

Rozier (groin) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Heat.

Rozier will be unavailable for a fifth consecutive game due to his left groin strain. Brandon Miller (ankle) and Theo Maledon should continue to see increased run in his absence. Rozier will have a few additional days to recover before the Hornets face Milwaukee on Friday.

Rozier (groin) will not play Sunday against the Knicks.

Rozier will miss his third consecutive game Sunday due to a groin strain. Brandon Miller and Theo Maledon will continue seeing relevant bumps in usage

The Hornets announced Tuesday that Rozier (groin) will miss the next two games Wednesday and Friday, both of which are against Washington.

An MRI confirmed that Rozier is dealing with an adductor strain, and he'll be re-evaluated after Charlotte's next two games. This means the earliest we could see Rozier return is Nov. 12 against the Knicks. LaMelo Ball will see heavy usage in Rozier's absence, and Theo Maledon could see extended minutes off the bench.

Rozier (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Dallas.

Rozier was questionable for Sunday's matchup due to a groin strain he sustained during Saturday's game against the Pacers. He'll be forced to miss at least one game, which could lead to increased run for Theo Maledon and Ish Smith.

Rozier is officially questionable for Sunday's game against Dallas.

Rozier suffered a groin strain in the fourth quarter of Saturday's game and Sunday's quick turnaround doesn't bode well for his availability. The 29-year-old remains questionable to play, with Theo Maledon and Ish Smith stepping in if Rozier is unavailable.

Rozier headed to the locker room during the fourth quarter of Saturday's game against the Pacers due to a groin injury, Scott Agness of FieldhouseFiles.com reports.

Rozier needed assistance to get to the locker room and was in obvious pain, so it wouldn't be shocking if he doesn't return to action for the final minutes of the contest.

Rozier closed with 23 points (10-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal over 41 minutes during Monday's 133-121 loss to the Nets.

Rozier notched his third straight 20-point game, and he's managed to earn a commendable 45.5 clip from the field despite connecting on just 20.0 percent of 6.7 threes per game thus far. Rozier is a minor buy-low candidate given his 36.6 percent career average from beyond the arc.

Rozier accumulated 24 points (7-16 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-12 FT), five rebounds and six assists across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 116-110 victory over the Hawks.

Rozer iced the game for the Hornets, hitting a tough floater over Clint Capela to expand the lead in the final seconds. Rozier is a focal point of Charlotte's offense, with Wednesday's volume being a fair representation of his expected usage this season.

Rozier was a standout in offseason practices, Sam Perley of NBA.com reports.

Coach Steve Clifford singled out Rozier for his work ethic and it's worth noting that he arrived in Charlotte a month early to prepare for the season. With LaMelo Ball healthy and running the point, Rozier will be in a more familiar role. Rozier was carrying a foot injury at the end of the 2022-23 season, but that should be well behind him now.

Rozier (foot) is out Sunday against the Cavaliers.

Rozier's absence streak to end the season extends to seven games. He finishes the 2022-23 campaign with career highs in points per game (21.1) and assists per game (5.1), largely due to the extended absences of LaMelo Ball (ankle). However, Rozier struggled with his efficiency, slashing 42/33/81.

Rozier (foot) will not play Friday against the Rockets.

Rozier is set for his seventh consecutive absence Friday, and it's hardly a surprise for a Hornets club sitting the majority of its regulars down the stretch. He has one more chance to suit up in Sunday's regular-season finale, though it would be surprising if that were the case.

Rozier (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Raptors.

Rozier will be unavailable for a sixth consecutive game due to a sore right foot. It's unclear whether he'll return prior to the end of the regular season, but his next opportunity to suit up will be Friday against Houston.

Rozier (foot) will not take the floor during Sunday's game versus the Raptors.

Rozier continues to sit, with Sunday's absence marking his fifth consecutive absence due to right foot soreness. He may have already played his last game of the season for the lottery-bound Hornets, but his next theoretical chance to return arrives Tuesday in a rematch with Toronto.

Rozier (foot) won't play in Friday's game versus the Bulls.

Rozier's absence streak will extend to four games due to right foot soreness. His next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Toronto.

Rozier (foot) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against Oklahoma City.

This will be the third straight absence for Rozier, who is said to be battling soreness in his right foot. With the Hornets well out of playoff contention and essentially locked into the fourth-best lottery odds, it's very possible -- if not likely -- that the team will continue to take it easy with several veterans, including Rozier, down the stretch.

Rozier (foot) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Mavericks.

Rozier's absence shouldn't surprise many fantasy managers since he was already listed as unlikely to play, and now he'll sit a second straight game Sunday. Dennis Smith is expected to remain in the starting lineup as his replacement, while Theo Maledon and Bryce McGowens could see expanded roles as well. Rozier's next chance to play will come Tuesday at Oklahoma City.

Rozier (foot) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup against the Mavericks, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier is expected to be out for a second consecutive game Sunday. That could lead to another start for Dennis Smith, while Theo Maledon and Bryce McGowens could see extra action as well.

Rozier (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Dallas.

No surprises here, as Rozier was carrying a doubtful tag prior to this update. His next chance to play will be a rematch against Dallas on March 26. Dennis Smith Jr. will get the start in Rozier's absence, and Svi Mykhailiuk will look to build on his momentum after scoring 15 points versus the Pelicans on Thursday.

Rozier (foot) is doubtful for Friday's game against Dallas.

Rozier exited Thursday's game against the Pelicans due to right foot discomfort and will likely be forced to miss the second half of the back-to-back set. Dennis Smith (illness) is probable, and he'll likely see increased run against the Mavericks, while Theo Maledon and James Bouknight could also see some minutes.

Rozier left Thursday's game against the Pelicans with discomfort in his right foot and is doubtful to return.

Rozier left the game in the second quarter with five points, four rebounds and two assists in 10 minutes and is unlikely to return. If he doesn't come back, Dennis Smith will take over lead point guard duties while Bryce McGowens could see more run.

Rozier finished Monday's 115-109 win over the Pacers with 23 points (7-19 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), nine assists, two steals and one rebound in 37 minutes.

Rozier had attempted just five free throws over his previous four contests, but he made a more concerted effort to get to the line Monday and cashed in on those opportunities. The perfect showing from the free-throw line helped make up for another inefficient outing from the field, something that fantasy managers have already come to expect from Rozier. Since he's converting at a 41.5 percent rate from the field for the season on a whopping 19.1 attempts per game, Rozier retains far more value in point leagues, where his poor percentage isn't taken into account. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) out of the lineup for the past three weeks, Rozier has been a top-50 performer in points leagues during that stretch.

Rozier racked up 22 points (10-20 FG, 2-7 3Pt), three rebounds and nine assists over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 120-104 loss to the Cavaliers.

It was another strong performance from the veteran point guard, who's scored more than 20 points in five straight games, Rozier did just miss his first double-double since late October, but that's a minor quibble -- over his last nine games, he's averaging 21.9 points, 6.3 assists, 4.3 boards, 2.7 threes and 1.2 steals. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) done for the season, Rozier seems locked into a starting role over the final weeks.

Rozier finished Saturday's 119-111 loss to the Jazz with 22 points (10-23 FG, 2-8 3Pt), eight assists, six rebounds, two steals and one block in 34 minutes.

Listed as probable heading into the day with a calf injury, Rozier suited up and didn't face any limitations from a minutes or performance standpoint. He's now cleared the 20-point mark in six of the last seven games while averaging 6.0 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 2.6 triples, but his production has proven much more useful in points leagues due to his poor efficiency. Rozier is shooting just 41.6 percent from the field (on 19.6 attempts per game) and 66.7 percent from the free-throw line (on 3.4 attempts) over that seven-game stretch.

Rozier (right calf contusion) is available Saturday against the Jazz.

Rozier was previously considered probable, so it appears to be a minor injury. Rozier has been putting up some solid fantasy numbers lately, scoring at least 20 points in five of his last six games.

Rozier is probable for Saturday's game against the Jazz with a right calf contusion.

Rozier was a late addition to the injury report Saturday morning after being handed a probable tag for the matchup. Considering Saturday's tilt is the opening leg of a back-to-back set and Rozier has missed just one game since Dec. 21, fantasy managers should keep an eye on him as a potential rest candidate.

Rozier closed Thursday's 113-103 win over the Pistons with 21 points (9-22 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and two steals across 35 minutes.

Rozier led the team in assists while finishing one assist shy of a double-double and four rebounds short of a triple-double in a 21-point performance. Rozier has recorded at least 20 points, five assists and five rebounds on 11 occasions this season, including in two straight outings. 

Rozier registered 25 points (10-22 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds and seven assists over 38 minutes during Tuesday's 112-105 victory over the Knicks.

The seven assists were his most since Jan. 29, but Rozier will likely continue to put up increased distribution numbers with LaMelo Ball (ankle) done for the year. Rozier has also scored 20 or more points in four of the last five games, averaging 21.0 points, 5.0 assists, 4.0 boards and 3.0 threes over that stretch.

Rozier had 16 points (5-17 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and four assists in 37 minutes during Sunday's 102-86 loss to the Nets.

Rozier shot just 5-of-17 from the field Sunday, continuing a trend that managers will be hoping comes to an end soon. With the Hornets going nowhere fast, Rozier should be in a position to hoist as many shots as he wants down the stretch. Unfortunately, that could also mean he delivers a huge blow to your field goal percentage. Anyone rostering will at least be hoping he can offset his flaws by upping his production in both assists and steals.

Rozier closed Monday's 117-106 win over Detroit with 22 points (9-19 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 38 minutes.

After a couple rough shooting nights coming out of the All-Star break, Rozier looked a little more comfortable Monday. He's scored more than 20 points in six of 10 games in February, averaging 20.2 points, 3.7 boards, 3.6 assists, 2.4 threes and 1.7 steals on the month.

Rozier logged nine points (2-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, five assists and two steals over 33 minutes during Friday's 121-113 victory over the Timberwolves.

Rozier missed his last game before the All-Star break (hand) but returned to the starting lineup in Friday's win over Minnesota. The veteran guard struggled mightily from the field, including an 0-for-5 showing from beyond the arc, but did provide some good assists and steals, as well as solid free-throw volume. As long as he is back to full health, look for him to bounce back sooner rather than later.

Rozier (hand) is available for Friday's matchup against the Timberwolves.

As expected, Rozier will be available for the Hornets' first game out of the break after missing the final contest before the festivities. He's scored in double digits across 25 straight games (23.1 PPG) while adding 4.3 dimes, 4.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 35.2 minutes.

Rozier (hand) is probable for Friday's game against the Timberwolves.

Rozier was unavailable for the Hornets' final game before the All-Star break due to a right hand sprain, but he'll likely be back in action when the team resumes play Friday. Over his last 10 appearances, he's averaged 23.6 points, 4.9 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 1.7 steals in 35.2 minutes per game.

Rozier (hand) is out for Wednesday's matchup against the Spurs.

Rozier will sit out Charlotte's final game before the break, meaning his next chance to play arrives Feb. 24 at Minnesota. In Rozier's absence, Dennis Smith is expected to start, and Bryce McGowens should see more minutes as well.

Rozier is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Spurs due to a right hand sprain.

Rozier was a late addition to the injury report and will likely miss the Hornets' final game before the All-Star break, which would mark his first absence since Dec. 21. Bryce McGowens and Dennis Smith are candidates for increased roles if Rozier is indeed sidelined Wednesday.

Rozier finished Monday's 144-138 win over the Hawks with 29 points (11-19 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five assists, four rebounds and two blocks across 33 minutes.

After being limited to 12 points on 4-for-14 shooting from the field in Saturday's loss to the Nuggets, Rozier displayed much-improved efficiency Monday and even supplemented the scoring with a rare contribution in the blocks category. More often than not, the field-goal percentage category will be a sore spot for Rozier, but fantasy managers were likely already anticipated that. On a more positive note for Rozier, the Hornets are continuing to lack in many reliable scoring threats beyond point guard LaMelo Ball, so the 28-year-old should continue to have free reign to put up all the shot attempts he can.

Rozier produced 12 points (4-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, four assists and three steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 119-105 loss to the Nuggets.

Rozier struggled with his shot Saturday night and failed to score 19 points in a game for the first time in almost a month. On the plus side, he continued his strong run of steals, recording another three and bringing his February average up to 2.0 per game. The veteran guard has always been a bit of a streaky shooter, and fantasy managers already expect to take a slight hit on their percentage categories in exchange for solid scoring when Rozier is in their starting lineups.

Rozier finished Friday's 127-116 loss to the Celtics with 27 points (9-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-9 FT), one rebound, three assists and three steals over 36 minutes.

Rozier continued his recent run of strong performances Friday, scoring at least 20 points for the seventh time in his past eight games. He has also recorded multiple steals in four of the past five, contributing to what has been top-30 value over the past month. After a slow start, Rozier is looking more like the player we expected coming into the season, rewarding managers who were able to navigate his inefficient scoring early on.

Rozier finished Wednesday's 118-104 loss to Washington with 19 points (7-20 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and two steals across 37 minutes.

Rozier struggled to find the bottom of the net Wednesday, particularly from deep, as he went just 2-for-10 from three-point range. However, the veteran guard made up for the poor shooting with solid production elsewhere, leading Charlotte with six assists and adding seven boards and two steals. This was Rozier's first game under 20 points since Jan. 24, and he's been putting up big numbers since the start of the calendar year, averaging 24.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 3.3 triples and 1.5 steals while shooting 45.5 percent from the field and 82.4 percent from the charity stripe over his past 19 games.

Rozier closed with 24 points (9-14 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one block in 36 minutes during Sunday's 119-113 loss to Orlando.

The veteran guard continues to enhance his trade value should the Hornets decide to move him at the deadline. Rozier has scored at least 20 points in six straight games and nine of the last 10, averaging 25.1 points, 4.9 boards, 3.8 assists, 3.5 threes and 1.7 steals over the latter stretch,

Rozier racked up 23 points (8-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two steals in 37 minutes during Thursday's 114-98 loss to the Bulls.

Rozier struggled from the field in a woeful shooting performance for the Hornets, but he still ended up as one of the team's best players. Aside from ending two rebounds shy of recording a double-double, Rozier has been on fire of late with four straight contests with 20 or more points while reaching that mark in seven of his last eight. He's averaging 24.9 points per game while shooting 45.2 percent from the field and 37.9 percent from deep since the start of January.

Rozier chipped in 31 points (11-19 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one block across 37 minutes during Sunday's 122-117 win over the Heat.

Rozier led all Hornets players in scoring and threes made while finishing three assists and four rebounds shy of a triple-double. Rozier has tallied at least 30 points, five rebounds and five assists in two games this season, having reached the 30-point mark in two of his last five games.

Rozier produced 28 points (9-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 6-8 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and four steals over 35 minutes during Thursday's 111-96 win over the Bulls.

Rozier did a good chunk of damage from beyond the arc, and he's now drained four triples in back-to-back matchups. He also showed up on the defensive end by collecting four steals. Rozier's quick hands have been on full display of late, as he's averaging 2.7 steals to go along with 24.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists over his last six games.

Rozier (illness) will take the floor Thursday against the Bulls.

Rozier claimed a probable tag on the injury report despite an illness, so his taking the floor doesn't come as a major surprise. However, LaMelo Ball (ankle, wrist) and Gordon Hayward (hamstring) are also returning to action Thursday, so Rozier will have to share with more scoring options.

Rozier is probable for Thursday's game against Chicago due to an illness.

Rozier was a late addition to Thursday's injury report but will likely be able to play through his illness against the Bulls. He's been on a tear in January, averaging 24.8 points, 4.7 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 35.6 minutes per game over 12 appearances.

Rozier totaled 19 points (7-21 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 128-97 loss to Phoenix.

Rozier found success from beyond the arc where he scored 12 of his 19 points. He continues to serve as a reliable source of points for Charlotte and is averaging 24.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.6 steals through 12 contests in January.

Rozier posted 23 points (9-23 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Monday's 120-102 loss to the Jazz.

Rozier struggled from the field and needed 23 shots to score 23 points, but he still ended as Charlotte's main offensive threat in this 18-point loss. The veteran point guard continues to play well despite the team's struggles and is averaging 25.3 points per game in January while hitting the 20-point plateau in six of his last seven outings.

Rozier closed Saturday's 122-118 win over Atlanta with 34 points (11-25 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds, five assists and four steals over 39 minutes.

Rozier came alive in the second half Saturday, scoring 28 of his 34 points as the Hornets rallied to secure the victory. With LaMelo Ball sidelined once again due to multiple injuries, Rozier looks set for a short-term boost. He has now attempted at least 24 shots in two straight games, but perhaps more importantly, has collected multiple steals in three straight. He has been a top-25 player over the past two weeks, providing managers with a nice reprieve after an indifferent start to the season.

Rozier totaled 26 points (11-24 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes during Wednesday's 122-117 victory over the Rockets.

Rozier needed 24 shots to score 26 points, and while the efficiency was lacking, he still ended up as one of the team's best players in what was a tight win for Charlotte against another rebuilding franchise. Rozier has been playing well of late and has scored at least 20 points in four of his last five contests.

Rozier notched 33 points (14-19 FG, 5-9 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 132-120 loss to Toronto.

The veteran guard topped 30 points for the second time in three games, but Rozier didn't get enough help from his teammates -- especially on the defensive end -- to turn it into a win. He's on pace for the best season of his career from a scoring perspective, more due to volume than efficiency, and over his last eight games Rozier is averaging 23.0 points, 4.5 assists, 3.8 boards and 2.6 threes.

Rozier accumulated 39 points (15-29 FG, 6-15 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Friday's 138-109 win over Milwaukee.

Rozier finally broke through Friday, pouring in a season-high 39 points against the Bucks. In one of the more curious games this season, the Hornets were in control from the outset, with Rozier leading from the front. While his numbers have been more than adequate this season, Rozier's efficiency has been a major sticking point for managers. This is undoubtedly a step in the right direction and something that can hopefully propel him back into the top 50 moving forward.

Rozier amassed 21 points (7-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 131-107 loss to the Grizzlies.

The Hornets' backcourt of Rozier and LaMelo Ball did just fine against the Southwest Division-leading Grizzlies, but the same can't be said for the rest of the lineup. Rozier has been his usual productive self since missing two games in late December with a minor hip issue, averaging 17.6 points, 4.7 assists, 3.6 boards and 2.0 threes over the last seven contests.

Rozier accumulated 27 points (11-20 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds and four assists in 35 minutes during Monday's 121-115 loss to the Lakers.

Rozier appeared headed for a quiet game through three quarters before pouring in 17 points in the final period as Charlotte mounted a spirited rally. The Lakers managed to hold on, but it was nonetheless an impressive performance by Rozier, who finished with his highest point total since Dec. 7. The veteran guard also snapped a poor shooting stretch -- coming into Monday, he had shot just 28.3 percent from the field over his previous four contests.

Rozier accumulated seven points (2-17 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and six assists across 37 minutes during Monday's 124-113 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Rozier was ice-cold in the loss, shooting a woeful 2-of-17 from the floor. This performance really sums up Rozier's season thus far, highlighting his struggles from the field. He currently sits outside the top 150 in standard formats, basically due to the fact he is shooting under 40 percent from the field. He clearly remains a must-roster player but if his manager is battling to stay alive in the standings, throwing out a low-ball offer is certainly a viable strategy.

Rozier provided 23 points (9-15 FG, 5-8 3Pt), four rebounds, six assists, one block and two steals across 38 minutes during Friday's 134-130 win over the Lakers.

Rozier returned to action with a superb shooting performance, draining five three-pointers in eight attempts beyond the arc. The standout guard played 38 minutes and showed no lingering effects from his previous hip injury, which sidelined him for two games. Although LaMelo Ball's return has provided a much-needed spark, Rozier is an integral part of Charlotte's offensive game plan and should be rostered in all fantasy formats.

Rozier (hip) is available for Friday's game against the Lakers.

Rozier is available and will presumably reclaim his spot in the starting lineup following a two-game absence due to a hip injury. Before his injury, Rozier had scored at least 20 points in nine of his past 10 appearances, posting 23.4 points and 6.0 assists during that stretch.

Rozier (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Boone notes that Rozier has been able to participate in practice Thursday after missing time with a bruised hip. The team should have a better idea of his availability following morning shootaround.

Rozier (hip) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Rozier will miss a second straight contest with an ailing right hip bruise which he suffered during Sunday's loss to Denver. Kelly Oubre, who started in place of Rozier on Monday, will presumably garner a second consecutive start. The Louisville product will presumably be tabbed questionable heading into the team's next contest against the Lakers on Friday.

Rozier (hip) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier is on the verge of missing his second straight contest with a right hip bruise. If that's indeed the case, Kelly Oubre will presumably garner a second consecutive start Wednesday versus the Clippers.

Rozier (hip) is out for Monday's contest against the Kings.

After exiting Charlotte's previous contest early, Rozier is officially out Monday. This will mark the Louisville product's ninth missed contest of the season. Rozier's next chance to rejoin the Hornet's lineup comes Wednesday against the Clippers.

Rozier (hip) is a game-time decision for Monday's contest against the Kings, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

Rozier exited without return during Charlotte's previous contest due to a hip injury, but the 28-year-old appears to have a chance at suiting up Monday. If Rozier is ultimately ruled out, the Louisville product's next chance to return comes Wednesday against the Clippers.

Rozier (hip) provided two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 14 minutes during Sunday's 119-115 loss to the Nuggets.

Rozier lasted just 14 minutes before succumbing to a hip injury, keeping him out for the remainder of the game. This is an unfortunate turn of events for managers, although his availability for Monday is yet to be determined. Should he be ruled out, look for Kelly Oubre and Jalen McDaniels to both slide up in the rotation.

Rozier finished with 25 points (8-28 FG, 2-13 3Pt, 7-8 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 42 minutes during Wednesday's 141-134 overtime loss to the Pistons.

Rozier managed to finish as one of Charlotte's top scorers, but he needed 28 shots from the field and eight attempts from the charity stripe to reach 25 points. This was an uncharacteristic shooting line for the Lousiville product, who had shot 48.1 percent from the field and 41.7 percent from three in his previous five matchups heading into Wednesday's clash.

Rozier compiled 29 points (10-20 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds and six assists in 34 minutes in Sunday's 131-113 loss in Philadelphia.

Rozier scored 15 first-half points despite getting into foul trouble and being limited to 15 minutes of playing time. It was his third straight game making at least 10 baskets and shooting at least 50.0 percent. Even with the recent efficiency from the field, he's made just 40.7 percent of his shots and 33.1 percent of his three-pointers on the season.

Rozier produced 24 points (10-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 32 minutes during Friday's 121-102 loss to the Knicks.

With the Hornets hit by injuries to LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Gordon Hayward (shoulder), Rozier has stepped up to be the team's clear focal point on offense. Including Friday's performance, he's scored at least 22 points in seven straight games and has put up over 20 shots in all but two of those. Rozier is on pace to set numerous career highs this season, including his current marks of 21.8 points, 5.7 assists and 4.7 rebounds per contest.

Rozier recorded 29 points (13-24 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds, five assists and one steal across 40 minutes during Wednesday's 122-116 loss to Brooklyn.

Rozier scored 18 of his 29 points after halftime, going 8-for-14 from the field and 2-for-3 from beyond the arc. It was his sixth straight 20-point performance and he's averaging 24.3 points per game in that span. While the 28-year-old is averaging a career-best 21.7 points per contest for the season, he's made just 39.6 percent of his shots and 30.9 percent of his three-pointers so far.

Rozier had 22 points (8-22 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals in 37 minutes during Monday's 119-117 loss to the Clippers.

The 28-year-old guard scored at least 22 points for a fifth straight game, although he sat out one game during that stretch due to illness. Rozier has taken full advantage of the fact LaMelo Ball has missed most of the season due to an ankle injury, and he's on pace to set new career highs in scoring (21.3 points a game), assists (5.8 a game) and rebounds (4.8 a game).

Rozier ended Saturday's 105-96 loss to the Bucks with 26 points (10-21 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and four assists over 36 minutes.

Rozier had a solid night shooting the ball, going 4-of-8 from the field for 13 points in the first half before adding another 13 in the second half, nine of which came in the fourth quarter. He was just 1-of-7 from three on the night but did hit all five of his free-throw attempts after going 7-of-7 from the foul line in the Hornets' previous game. The Hornets guard has now hit the 20-point mark in four straight contests and is shooting 43.3 percent from the field over that stretch.

Rozier supplied 25 points (8-21 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 41 minutes during Friday's 117-116 victory over the Wizards.

After missing one game due to illness, Rozier didn't miss a beat in his return to the court Friday night. His 25 points led the team, as did his 41 minutes. The Charlotte guard hasn't been a very efficient scorer this season, but he did hit all seven of his free-throw attempts. More importantly, his 20.9 points, 5.8 assists and 4.7 rebounds are all career highs.

Rozier (illness) will return to the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Rozier missed the team's last contest due to illness and is expected to have no restrictions. His return bumps Theo Maledon back to the bench.

Rozier (illness) is off the injury report for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Rozier will be back following a one-game absence. Fewer minutes will be available for Theo Maledon, Bryce McGowens and James Bouknight, though Dennis Smith's (ankle) injury may keep that trio in the rotation.

Rozier (illness) is out for Monday's contest against Boston

After initially being deemed probable, Rozier is now out for Monday's matchup against Boston. Theo Maledon and James Bouknight figure to take on additional playmaking opportunities with the likes of Rozier, LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Dennis Smith (ankle) all on the sidelines. Rozier's next chance to return to Charlotte's lineup comes Friday against the Wizards.

Rozier is probable for Monday's game against the Celtics due to an illness.

Rozier was a late addition to Monday's injury report, but it appears likely that he'll be able to play through his illness. Over his last four appearances, he's averaged 20.0 points, 6.0 assists and 4.5 rebounds in 41.3 minutes per game.

Rozier notched 22 points (9-18 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal over 40 minutes during Wednesday's 107-101 win over Philadelphia.

Rozier came up big in the fourth quarter to help Charlotte snap its three-game losing streak, going a perfect 4-of-4 from the field for nine points while also dishing an assist to Nick Richards early in the period to tie the game at 81. It was a great finish for the Hornets shooting guard after going 0-of-4 from the field in the first quarter and he's now recorded 20 or more points in five of his last 10 games. After going 0-of-6 from three in Charlotte's previous game, Rozier only attempted a season-low three shots from beyond the arc on Wednesday, making one of them. This did, however, help him shoot 50 percent from the field in the contest, only the second time this season he's reached that mark this season.

Rozier recorded 28 points (11-32 FG, 5-16 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal across 49 minutes during Friday's 132-122 double-overtime loss to the Cavaliers.

Rozier didn't get much rest in this one, as he easily set a season-high with 49 minutes. He struggled to connect from the field but stuffed the stat sheet, marking just the third time this year he's finished with 20-plus points, five or more assists and five or more rebounds. Rozier is averaging 20.4 points, 3.9 rebounds and 4.9 assists over his last seven matchups (38.0 minutes).

Rozier totaled 22 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound, six assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Saturday's 132-115 loss to the Heat.

Rozier led the Hornets with 22 points in the contest, marking the fifth time in seven contests this season that he's topped the 20-point mark. The veteran guard has been doing much of his work from beyond the arc, draining multiple triples in all but one of the contests in which he's played. Rozier added six dimes to his line Saturday, the most he has dished since racking up 11 assists in Charlotte's second game of the campaign.

Rozier totaled 22 points (8-25 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds and three assists in 43 minutes during Thursday's 117-112 overtime loss to the Heat.

Rozier suffered through another rough night on the offensive end, and he's now 32-for-92 (34.8 percent) from the field in four games since returning from an ankle injury. This obviously hasn't had an impact on his confidence, as he's attempted 20 or more shots in each of these matchups. Rozier's scoring totals haven't suffered much despite a string of ugly performances, with the guard averaging 21.0 points in November (four contests).

Rozier recorded 18 points (6-20 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and five assists over 35 minutes in Wednesday's 105-95 loss to the Trail Blazers.

Rozier got off to a decent start in the first quarter to help the Hornets jump out to a 30-25 lead, connecting on two of four shots for five points, while also dishing out three assists in the period. He did not fair so well in the second half, going just 3-of-13 from the field, including 1-of-7 in the fourth quarter as the Hornets scored just 16 points in the final period to take their sixth-straight loss. Rozier has now failed to reach 20 points in each of his last two games after hitting that mark in his each of his first three to begin the season.

Rozier registered 19 points (9-23 FG, 1-9 3Pt), three rebounds and five assists over 38 minutes during Monday's 108-100 loss to the Wizards.

In his second game back from an ankle injury and on the second night of a back-to-back, Rozier delivered solid numbers and handled his usual workload, so it appears as though he's 100 percent healthy. The veteran guard should continue to see elevated usage as long as LaMelo Ball (ankle) remains sidelined.

Rozier chipped in 25 points (9-24 FG, 6-15 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and three assists over 36 minutes during Saturday's 98-94 loss to the Nets.

Rozier returned to the Hornets lineup on Saturday after missing the team's last seven games with an ankle injury and recorded his highest scoring output of the season with 25 points, which also led the team. The Hornets guard connected six three pointers in the game, including two in the fourth quarter, though his effort would fall short as the Hornets coughed up the lead and suffered their fourth loss in a row. Rozier will look to help get Charlotte back on track at home against the Wizards on Monday.

Rozier (ankle) will start Saturday against the Nets and won't face a minutes restriction, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

Rozier worked as point guard for the Hornets to open the season with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined, but Dennis Smith has performed well in the seven games since Rozier suffered an ankle injury against the Pelicans. While it remains to be seen how the Hornets will adjust the lineup, Jaden McDaniels and Smith would be the primary options to shift out of the unit.

Rozier (ankle) will return to action Saturday versus the Nets.

Rozier operated as the starting point guard for the Hornets to open the season with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined, but Dennis Smith has performed well in the seven games since Rozier suffered an ankle injury against the Pelicans. It remains to be seen what effect that will have on starting lineup decisions Saturday, and it's unclear if Rozier will have any limitations after missing multiple weeks. Jaden McDaniels may be the most likely option to move to the bench if Rozier inserted in the starting five.

Rozier (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Nets, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozeir has been deemed doubtful for the Hornets' previous seven games, so his questionable designation is cause for optimism. Still, his final status will presumably be determined by how he is feeling closer to tip-off. With LaMelo Ball (ankle), Caleb Martin (quad) and Gordon Hayward (shoulder) all out again, Dennis Smith, Kelly Oubre, James Bouknight and Jalen McDaniels would all be in line for relatively heavy workloads should Rozier ultimately miss another game.

Rozier (ankle) is slated to sit out Friday's game against the Grizzlies, Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site reports.

According to coach Steve Clifford, Rozier and the rest of the Hornets' injured starters are on the mend and nearing a return to action. It remains to be seen exactly when that will be but Rozier's next chance to suit up arrives Saturday against the Nets.

Rozier (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

Friday marks the seventh consecutive game Rozier has been labeled doubtful. He didn't play in the prior six. His next opportunity to be doubtful arrives Saturday against the Nets. Caleb Martin (quad) is also doubtful, while LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Gordon Hayward (shoulder) are out.

Rozier (ankle) has been officially ruled out for Wednesday's contest versus the Bulls.

Rozier was already termed doubtful leading up to the contest, so the downgrade to out hardly comes as a surprise. This has been the process for the Hornets regarding Rozier for a while now, so it will be more notable when Rozier gets an upgrade on the injury report to questionable or better. His next chance to play arrives Friday in Memphis.

Rozier (ankle) is labeled doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Bulls, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier's ankle issue suffered Oct. 21 against the Pelicans has now kept him out more than a week, leaving the Hornets down both of their top two options to start at point guard. Dennis Smith has been operating in that role of late and should remain in those duties Wednesday, assuming Rozier sits as expected.

Rozier (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings.

Rozier was previously listed as doubtful, so as expected, he'll be sidelined for a fifth straight game due to an ankle injury, LaMelo Ball (ankle) also remains out, so Dennis Smith figures to continue garnering a major role for at least one more contest.

Rozier (ankle) is doubtful for Monday's matchup against the Spurs.

Rozier is likely headed towards a fifth straight absence due to an ankle injury. LaMelo Ball (ankle) remains out, so Dennis Smith's resurgent start to the campaign figures to continue for at least one more contest.

Rozier (ankle) will not play in Saturday's game versus Golden State.

Rozier was already listed as doubtful for the contest, so his downgrade to out leading up to the tilt isn't particularly surprising. Look for Dennis Smith to continue operating as the primary point guard with Rozier and LaMelo Ball (ankle) out, while Kelly Oubre and Gordon Hayward will likely be relied on for more scoring.

Rozier (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Warriors.

Rozier is expected to remain sidelined for a fourth straight game as he continues to recover from a right ankle sprain. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) already ruled out and Cody Martin (quad) also unlikely to play, Dennis Smith and Kelly Oubre figure to continue handling most of Charlotte's backcourt responsibilities. Theo Maledon and James Bouknight should also continue to see increased run off the bench.

Rozier (ankle) won't play in Friday's game versus the Magic.

Rozier will miss three straight games due to a right ankle sprain. The Hornets are on the first night of a back-to-back, so he may return to the lineup Saturday, but there is no indication when he will rejoin the team. With Rozier and Lamelo Ball (ankle) out, Dennis Smith and Kelly Oubre are expected to start with James Bouknight and Theo Maledon being the primary backups in the backcourt Friday.

Rozier (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game versus the Magic, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier is likely to miss his third consecutive game Friday due to a right ankle sprain. Dennis Smith and Kelly Oubre are likely to be the team's starters with LaMelo Ball (ankle) still out, with Theo Maledon and James Bouknight as the primary backup guards Friday.

Rozier (ankle) has been officially ruled out for Wednesday's game versus the Knicks.

Rozier's right ankle sprain will cause him to miss his second consecutive game. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) still out, Dennis Smith, Theo Maledon and James Bouknight will likely receive increased backcourt minutes. Rozier's next opportunity to play will be Friday against the Magic.

Rozier (ankle) is doubtful for Wednesday's matchup against the Knicks.

Rozier will miss a second consecutive game due to a right ankle sprain. The combo guard saw an increased role in the first two games of the season with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined, but Rozier picked up an injury of his own, leaving Dennis Smith, James Bouknight and Theo Maledon to handle the majority of the backcourt minutes against Atlanta on Sunday. If Rozier is sidelined again Wednesday, expect the aforementioned trio to see increased roles once again.

Rozier (ankle) will not play Sunday against the Hawks.

Rozier is battling a sprained right ankle that landed him on the injury report with a doubtful tag coming into the day. The hope is that he doesn't miss multiple games, but his status will be worth monitoring in advance of Wednesday's game at the Knicks. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) still sidelined, Dennis Smith Jr. will start at point guard in Rozier's absence Sunday.

Rozier holds a doubtful designation for Sunday's game versus the Hawks due to a right ankle sprain.

Rozier sprained his ankle during Friday's tilt versus the Pelicans, but Rozier managed to stay on the court for the remainder of the tilt. The ankle has presumably gotten a bit worse after getting off of it for some time and will likely cost him at least a contest. With Lonzo Ball already ruled out Sunday, Dennis Smith, James Bouknight and The Maledon may be the team's primary options on the ball Sunday.

Rozier provided 23 points (7-24 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight rebounds, 11 assists, two blocks and one steal over 36 minutes during Friday's 124-112 loss to New Orleans.

Rozier tallied his first double-double of the young season and nearly recorded a triple-double, falling just two boards shy. He struggled to find his shooting stroke in this one but should continue to see plenty of opportunities moving forward, as he's already hoisted up 43 shot attempts through two games.

Rozier logged 24 points (10-19 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists and one block over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 129-102 victory over the Spurs.

Rozier hit the ground running in the season opener, leading the team in both scoring and assists. His line could have been even juicier had the game not fallen into garbage time, although managers are certainly not complaining. With LaMelo Ball sidelined due to a knee injury, Rozier is going to have the ball in his hands a little more, giving him a short-term boost when it comes to his assist numbers. For anyone who grabbed him in the fourth or fifth round of drafts, things are certainly looking up.

Rozier posted 12 points (4-11 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, four assists, a steal and a block in 27 minutes during Wednesday's 99-94 preseason loss to the 76ers.

Rozier took on a starting role during Wednesday's exhibition matchup and led the team in playing time with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined. It's not yet clear when Ball will be able to return, but Rozier should continue to see an increased role for Charlotte if Ball is unavailable to begin the regular season.

Rozier will serve as the Hornets' starting point guard Wednesday against the 76ers.

This was the expected lineup change from the Hornets following the news that LaMelo Ball will miss some time with Grade 2 ankle sprain. It's unclear how long Ball will be sidelined at this point, but look for Rozier to fill in as the starter on the ball in the interim, boosting his fantasy value early in the campaign.

Rozier went for 24 points (8-13 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Monday's preseason loss to the Wizards.

Rozier looked to be in fine form despite the loss, leading the way with a polished offensive performance. Coming off a fantastic 2021-22 season, Rozier is locked in as a solid mid-round fantasy target, with some upside left to spare. LaMelo Ball was unable to finish the game due to an ankle sprain, putting his season debut in some doubt. Should he be unable to recover in time, Rozier could get a small, short-term bump.

Rozier scored 18 points (5-11 FG, 3-8 3 Pt, 5-6 FT) with five assists and three rebounds in 30 minutes against the Pacers on Wednesday.

It wasn't a pretty start for Rozier after shooting just 2-of-7 from the field and 0-for-4 from three-point range in the first half. He got hot in the second half, hitting a three on his first shot attempt of the third and finishing with 13 points on 3-of-4 shooting over the final two quarters. He also recorded three assists in the second half while going 4-of-4 at the free-throw line.

Rozier registered 11 points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two steals and a rebound across 25 minutes in Sunday's 134-93 loss to the Celtics.

Rozier was one of three starters that scored in double digits for the Hornets, but his lack of efficiency certainly hurt the team as Charlotte ended up losing by more than 40 points. Rozier has never been known for shooting at an elite clip, but his role as one of the team's go-to players on offense shouldn't be under question as the regular season approaches.

Rozier registered 11 points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three assists, two steals and a rebound across 25 minutes in Sunday's 134-93 loss to the Celtics.

Rozier was one of three starters who scored in double digits for the Hornets, but his lack of efficiency certainly hurt the team as Charlotte lost by more than 40 points.

Rozier has scored at least 15 points in four of his last five appearances, but he has struggled a bit with his shot -- those woes have been particularly noticeable from beyond the arc since the combo guard has made just 18.8 percent of his treys during that five-game span. There's no question Rozier can put up points on the board on any given game, but he also needs to improve his efficiency.

Rozier totaled 16 points (7-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and six assists over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 144-115 loss to the Heat.

Rozier dished out six assists for a second consecutive contest and extended his double-digit scoring streak to 19 games. During that stretch, the combo guard has averaged 20.7 points, 4.8 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 34.1 minutes per game.

Rozier contributed 18 points (6-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 121-106 loss to the Knicks.

Rozier needed 18 points just to score 18 points and was woeful from the field, but he still posted a decent stat line across the board. The explosive point guard is not known for his efficiency, but he has taken steps in the right direction in that category. He's scored at least 15 points in all but one of his last 13 games, averaging 23.2 points per contest in that span.

Rozier ended with 17 points (7-14 FG, 3-9 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Monday's 106-103 victory over the Pelicans.

Rozier racked up 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists and one block over 29 minutes during Saturday's 129-108 win over Dallas.

Rozier recorded 30 points (10-19 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 5-5 FT), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals across 37 minutes during Tuesday's 132-121 loss to Brooklyn.

Rozier dazzled against the Nets, but his impressive performance -- he ended just two boards shy of a double-double while also making his presence felt both as a playmaker and a defensive asset -- was not enough for Charlotte to come away with the win. It's worth noting that Rozier has now scored at least 20 points in five of his last six games while reaching the 30-point mark in each of his last two appearances.

Rozier scored a team-high 31 points (10-18 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 5-5 Ft) while adding six assists, five rebounds and a steal in 35 minutes during Saturday's 123-117 win over the Spurs.

The 27-year-old guard remains red hot. Rozier has scored at least 29 points in three of the last four games and dropped 20 or more in 10 of 14 since the beginning of February, averaging 23.0 points, 5.8 assists, 5.1 boards, 3.4 threes and 1.2 steals over that stretch.

Rozier finished with a team best offensively, as the guard tallied at least 23 points for a sixth time across his past eight performances.

Rozier turned in his second-best scoring performance of the season in the OT loss. His great all-around line caps off an excellent February, averaging 22.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists over 11 games. Rozier's fantasy value is equally vital on a roster that generates a lot more attention from LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges.

Rozier amassed 23 points (10-16 FG, 3-7 3Pt), four rebounds, nine assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 125-93 win over the Raptors.

Across 10 contests in February, the seventh-year guard has averaged 21.2 points, 5.8 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 38.0 minutes per game. The solid performance is an encouraging sign after Rozier was a complete non-factor during the Hornets' final contest before the All-Star break. He'll look to continue his strong play Sunday against the Pistons.

Rozier had five points (2-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two rebounds, three assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Thursday's 111-107 double-overtime loss to the Heat.

Rozier vanished as his co-stars and supporting cast scrapped for a win only to fall short in double-overtime. LaMelo Ball got in foul trouble throughout the second half, making Rozier's poor performance that much more crushing. Thursday marks an outlier and sour note for Rozier heading into the All-Star break. He had exceeded 15 points in eight straight contests prior to Thursday's defeat.

Coming off of a 25-point, 11-assist, 10-rebound triple-double against Detroit on Friday, Rozier had another huge effort, but it wasn't enough to propel the Hornets past a red-hot Grizzlies team. Rozier established new season highs in field goal attempts and three-point attempts while tying his season high in points. The Hornets play Tuesday (at MIN) and Thursday (vs. MIA) before heading into the break.

Rozier recorded 25 points (9-18 FG, 3-9 3PT, 4-4 FT), ten rebounds, 11 assists and four steals across 37 minutes in Friday's 141- 119 victory over the Pistons.

Rozier's monster night marked his first triple-double of the seasons and season-high in both rebounds and assists. He continues to do a little bit of everything for the Hornets. The veteran guard is averaging 20.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.3 assists, 1.2 steals and 3.2 triples across 38.2 minutes in six games during the month of February.

Rozier ended with 20 points (8-19 FG, 4-11 3Pt), five rebounds and six assists over 41 minutes during Monday's 116-101 loss to the Raptors.

Rozier stayed hot Friday, notching his fourth 20-plus point outing over his previous five contests. During that stretch, the seventh-year guard has averaged 19.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.0 steals in 37.2 minutes per game. He'll look to continue his strong play Saturday against Miami.

Rozier chipped in 23 points (10-22 FG, 3-9 3Pt), five rebounds, four assists and three steals across 41 minutes during Wednesday's 113-107 loss to the Celtics.

Rozier bounced back from a 4-for-14 outing during Sunday's loss to the Clippers to score 20-plus points for the third time in his last four appearances. During that stretch, he has averaged 18.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.3 steals in 36.5 minutes per game, which is right around his season averages. Except for a few bad shooting nights, Rozier has been a consistent producer all season that is capable of a prolific outing every once in awhile.

Rozier contributed 20 points (7-16 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes during Friday's 117-114 win over the Lakers.

Rozier scored 20-plus points for the second consecutive game and for the 20th time this season. In January, he's averaging 19.9 points, 5.2 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 33.6 minutes. He'll look to continue his strong play against the Clippers on Sunday.

Rozier chipped in 28 points (10-18 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and 10 assists over 41 minutes during Wednesday's 111-102 win over Boston.

The 27-year-old went off against his old teammates and even drilled a dagger three-pointer to seal the win for Charlotte. Rozier is starting to find his scoring groove as the season progresses, reaching 20 points in five out of his last six showings. While the Louisville product's season-long average of 18.6 points per game is down from last season, this recent hot-stretch bodes well for Rozier's fantasy value moving forward.

Rozier finished with 22 points (8-18 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Monday's 97-87 victory over the Knicks.

Rozier saw plenty of work in the Hornets' backcourt since LaMelo Ball (illness) was kept on the sideline in the victory. The 27-year-old scored 20-plus points for the fourth time in the last five games, and he's had at least 17 field-goal attempts in each of those five contests. Even if Ball returns to full health ahead of Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Rozier should remain heavily involved in the Hornets' offensive attack.

Rozier logged 22 points (10-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals over 41 minutes during Wednesday's 109-98 victory over Philadelphia.

Rozier scored 25-plus points for the third time in his last four games and is averaging 24.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.8 steals in 33.8 minutes during that stretch. He'll look to continue his strong play Wednesday against the 76ers.

Rozier racked up 28 points (11-19 FG, 6-10 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and two steals over 34 minutes during Saturday's 114-106 victory over the Bucks.

Rozier powered the Hornets to victory on the back of some efficient shooting. In fact, Rozier has now shot in excess of 50 percent from the floor in three straight games, and five of his past six. He has ramped things up since returning from injury and is now chugging along as a solid mid-round fantasy asset. Barring any major setbacks, he should be able to maintain this kind of production moving forward.

Rozier finished Monday's 124-121 loss to the Wizards with 25 points (9-17 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three steals over 32 minutes.

On the season, Rozier is averaging 17.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 31.7 minutes per game across 28 starts. Rozier will look to carry his momentum into Wednesday's game against the Pistons.

Rozier registered 35 points (13-23 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-7 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two blocks and two steals over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 116-108 victory over the Pacers.

Rozier continued filling it up Wednesday, with his 35 points marking a season-best scoring total. Over his past four games, Rozier is averaging 24.8 points, 6.8 rebounds and 4.0 assists. Rozier will look to carry this momentum into a Sunday showdown with the Suns.

Rozier racked up 27 points (10-17 FG, 7-12 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Monday's 123-99 victory over Houston.

Rozier has now knocked down 15 threes over his past three games, en route to 46.9 percent shooting from deep over that stretch. However, on the season, Rozier is connecting on his lowest three-point percentage since 2016/17. Through eight December contests, Rozier is averaging 14.1 points on a 38.3/42.0/76.9 slash line.

Rozier contributed 20 points (7-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes during Monday's 112-102 loss to the Jazz.

After an abysmal two-game run where he totaled six points, Rozier came back to life with a much better shooting night. He drilled four threes in the loss after going two games without a converted shot from downtown. Rozier depends on an accurate night from beyond the arc to ensure a solid scoring total, and he's posted a disappointing 31 percent conversion rate from long range since his return from the league's health and safety protocols.

Rozier amassed four points (2-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt) and three rebounds in 21 minutes during Sunday's 137-106 loss to Phoenix.

Rozier averaged 16.5 points per game in his first two appearances after missing time due to the league's health and safety protocols, but he's now been held to just six points across the last two contests while shooting 15 percent from the floor. However, the 27-year-old has continued to have plenty of shot volume, and he'll attempt to get back on track in the second half of a back-to-back set against the Jazz on Monday.

Rozier registered 20 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Monday's 120-96 loss to the Mavericks.

Rozier emerged from the league's health and safety protocol with a respectable total. The team's fortunes will improve with the return of LaMelo Ball, which will result in a possible return to the bench for the veteran guard.

Rozier has cleared the league's health and safety protocols and will be available for Monday's game against Dallas.

Rozier missed the last four games due to the league's COVID-19 protocols, but he'll provide a significant boost for the shorthanded Hornets on Monday. He's averaged 22.8 points and 4.8 assists in 36.8 minutes per game across his last five appearances, and it wouldn't be surprising to see the team monitor his workload in his first game back on the court.

Rozier was placed in the league's health and safety protocols Saturday.

The Hornets are dealing with a potential COVID-19 outbreak among several players and staff members, so Rozier will need to spend some time away from the team. He's expected to miss multiple games, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Kelly Oubre and James Bouknight are in line for increased playing time while Rozier and LaMelo Ball (COVID-19 protocols) are out.

Rozier registered 31 points (11-17 FG, 6-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block in 37 minutes during Monday's 133-119 loss to the Bulls.

Rozier has struggled with accuracy and efficiency at times this season, but he's still able to deliver big games on any given night. He has scored 31 points in back-to-back games and has put up at least 27 points in four of his last five appearances, so he's clearly leaving his slow start to the season behind. The veteran guard is averaging 19.2 points per game through 16 games in November.

Rozier posted 27 points (11-22 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists, one block and six steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 106-99 victory over Orlando.

Rozier struggled from deep in Orlando but still had a strong offensive performance while also setting a season-high with six steals. It was the first time this season the 27-year-old recorded more than two steals in a contest.

Rozier amassed 32 points (11-19 FG, 8-11 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two rebounds and two steals during Monday's 109-103 win over Washington.

Rozier torched the Wizards' defense during the victory, as the guard was outstanding from deep after struggling offensively over the past two games. Rozier's eight threes were the most he has made in a game since May 1 of last season against the Pistons, and his 32 points also marked a new season best. The former Louisville standout was averaging just 10.0 points while shooting 36.4 percent overall from the field over his past two outings entering Monday.

Rozier had 19 points (9-19 FG, 1-7 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Wizards.

Rozier lead the team in scoring Wednesday while also tying his season-high in rebounds. The 27-year-old has also now scored in double-figures for a sixth consecutive game. Rozier has managed to do this despite shooting just 11 for 42 from deep in that span. If the veteran guard can regain his shooting stroke, he can be much more productive than he has been so far this season.

Rozier posted 20 points (7-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one assist, two blocks and one steal over 32 minutes during Sunday's 106-102 win over the Warriors.

Rozier has struggled with efficiency early in the 2021-22 campaign, but he shot 50 percent from the floor in Sunday's win and scored at least 20 points for the second time in the last four contests. The 27-year-old has scored in double figures in each of his last five appearances and has averaged 19.0 points and 3.4 rebounds in 32.8 minutes per game during that time.

Rozier totaled 29 points (11-22 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three assists, two rebounds and a steal over 40 minutes Monday in an overtime loss to the Lakers.

Rozier came into the contest in a three-game slump during which he averaged just 10.3 points on 27.1 percent shooting from the field. The veteran guard turned things around against Los Angeles, making half of his field-goal tries while tallying a season-high and team-leading 29 points. Rozier is getting plenty of minutes as a starter next to LaMelo Ball, and he should be a good source of scoring and triples if Monday's performance marks the end to his slow start to the season.

Rozier finished Sunday's loss to the Clippers with 17 points (8-22 FG, 1-9 3Pt), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals.

After missing five of the Hornets' first six games with an ankle injury, Rozier has now started the last five, but he's off to a slow start as a scorer. While he bounced back from a pair of single-digit scoring performances Sunday, Rozier had an inefficient night from the field -- and particularly from three, where he's a combined 3-of-23 over the last three contests. Coming off of a breakout 2020-21 campaign, Rozier has plenty of job security, but Charlotte -- which has dropped four straight games -- will need him to find his shooting stroke sooner than later.

Rozier put up 23 points (9-22 FG, 4-11 3PT, 1-2 FT) and had six rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block in 34 minutes Monday against Cleveland.

Rozier knocked down four triples for the second time in two days, as he appears to be settling in after missing time with an ankle injury. It was also reassuring to see the guard play 30-plus minutes on back-to-back nights, which is an indication that he's feeling strong.

Rozier finished Sunday's win over Portland with 14 points (4-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one steal.

After missing the previous four games with a sprained ankle, Rozier was back in the lineup at shooting guard, sending Kelly Oubre back to the bench. Nine of Rozier's 10 field goal attempts came from beyond the arc, but he drained four threes to help offset a relatively pedestrian night in other categories. For fantasy managers, it was a great sign that Rozier played a full complement of minutes (33) in his return.

Head coach James Borrego said Rozier (ankle) "is warming up now with the intent to play" Sunday versus Portland, per Sam Perley of the Hornets' official site.

Rozier sat out the Hornets' previous four games because of an ankle injury. However, they will try playing him one more time before October ends. Rozier's return would relegate Kelly Oubre to play from the bench.

Rozier (ankle) is probable for Sunday's matchup against the Trail Blazers, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier has missed the past four games with a sprained right ankle, but he should return Sunday. There's a good chance he starts, which would push Kelly Oubre to the bench.

Rozier (ankle) is out Friday against the Heat.

Rozier will miss a fourth straight game with a sprained right ankle. His next chance to play is Sunday against the Trail Blazers.

Rozier (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Heat.

Rozier has missed the last three games with a right ankle sprain but has a chance to return Friday. If he remains out against Miami, Kelly Oubre and Ish Smith should see additional playing time once again.

Rozier (ankle) is out Wednesday against the Magic, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

As expected, Rozier will remain out for a third straight game. In his absence, Kelly Oubre and Ish Smith should continue seeing extra run in the backcourt.

Rozier (ankle) is doubtful to play in Wednesday's game against Orlando.

Rozier is on course to miss his fourth game of the season as he continues to nurse the sprained right ankle he re-tweaked during Friday's game in Cleveland. The Hornets look to be handling his status on a game-to-game basis, so look for another update prior to Friday's game at Miami. Kelly Oubre will likely be in line for another start at shooting guard Wednesday.

Rozier (ankle) will remain out for Monday's game against Boston.

A sprained right ankle will cost Rozier a second straight game as the Hornets finish out their first back-to-back set of the season. It'll be the third absence, overall, for Rozier, who played 23 minutes in Friday's game at Cleveland, where he re-tweaked the right ankle. Expect Kelly Oubre to make another start in Rozier's place for the 3-0 Hornets.

Rozier (ankle) will not play Sunday against the Nets, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier came in questionable after exiting Friday's contest with an ankle sprain and ultimately won't be ready to play. The Hornets will be playing again Monday night against the Celtics and Rozier's status is certainly worth paying close attention to ahead of tip-off. Look for Kelly Oubre and James Bouknight to see increased minutes in his absence.

Rozier (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Nets.

Rozier is considered day-to-day after he sustained a mild ankle sprain in Friday's game against the Cavaliers. If he's held out Sunday, Kelly Oubre and James Bouknight will likely see increased run.

Rozier exited Friday's matchup with the Cavliers early due to a mild ankle sprain and is considered day-to-day, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

It is unclear if he aggravated the same ankle that caused him to miss the season opener and have a questionable tag heading into the evening. Still, his day-to-day status indicates the issue is not consiered serious but should be monitored going forward.

Rozier (ankle) will play and start Friday against the Cavaliers, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

After missing the opener with a sprained ankle, Rozier will make his debut Friday. Last year, he averaged 20.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.3 steals in 34.5 minutes.

Rozier (ankle) said after the Hornets' morning shootaround that he's "98 percent" sure he'll play Friday in Cleveland, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

The NBA's most recent official injury report lists Rozier as questionable for the game, but those considering the guard in daily season-long leagues or DFS contests can probably feel comfortable using him. That said, fantasy players will want to verify that Rozier is included in the Hornets' starting lineup, which should revealed at some point prior to the 7 p.m. ET tip. Rozier looks on track to make his season debut Friday after the left ankle sprain kept him from playing in the Hornets' 123-122 win over the Pacers on Wednesday.

Rozier (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Cavaliers, Rod Boone of the Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier was held out of Wednesday's opener due to a sprained left ankle, and the Hornets will wait to see how he responds over the next day-and-a-half before making a call on his status. If Rozier misses another game, Kelly Oubre would likely be in line for another start in his place.

Rozier (ankle) is out for Wednesday's season opener against the Pacers, Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier was moved from probable, to questionable and now to out. In his place, more minutes should be available for Kelly Oubre, Cody Martin and James Bouknight.

Rozier (ankle) is now listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against Indiana.

Rozier was initially listed as probable, but the Hornets have downgraded the guard to questionable on their latest injury report, so it's possible his sprained right ankle hasn't healed quite as quickly as expected. Rozier will still have a chance to play in the opener, but his status will be worth closely monitoring in the hours leading up to the 7:00 PM ET tip.

Rozier (ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's opener against the Pacers.

A sprained ankle hampered Rozier over the final week of the preseason, but he's been able to increase his activity over the last few days and is well on track to take the floor Wednesday night. Expectations are high for the Louisville product, who is coming off of a career year in 2020-21, when he averaged 20.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.4 blocks and 3.2 three-pointers per game while shooting a career-best 45.0 percent from the field.

Rozier (ankle) was back at practice Friday, but he was held out of the full-contract portion.

Rozier suffered a left ankle sprain and has been sidelined since, so him being back at practice -- even in a limited capacity -- is a good sign that he will be available for Wednesday's regular season opener. The 6-foot-1 guard signed a four-year, $97 million max contract this offseason, so the Hornets are expecting big things from him during the 2021-22 campaign.

The Hornets announced Sunday that Rozier suffered a left ankle sprain and will be re-evaluated later this week.

Rozier has been ruled out for Monday's exhibition game in Miami, and he looks unlikely to suit up in Wednesday's preseason finale against Dallas. Charlotte is hoping that Rozier's ankle injury isn't significant, but the timing of the setback could make it tough for him to gain clearance for the Oct. 20 regular-season opener against the Pacers. If Rozier can't go, Kelly Oubre could join the starting lineup in the backcourt alongside starting point guard LaMelo Ball.

Rozier and the Hornets agreed Thursday on a four-year, $97 million max contract extension, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

During his second season with Charlotte in 2020-21, Rozier proved to be an ideal running mate alongside rookie point guard LaMelo Ball, averaging a career-high 20.4 points per game while ranking fifth in three-pointers made (222) and drilling them at a 38.9 percent clip. The extension will now keep the 27-year-old Rozier in the fold for Charlotte through the 2025-25 season, giving him and Ball ample time to grow together. Rozier was spotted with a brace on his right wrist after the Hornets were eliminated in mid-May during the NBA's postseason play-in tournament, but he's expected to be a full go for training camp.

Rozier's right wrist was in a brace following Tuesday's play-in elimination loss to the Pacers, Rick Bonnell of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Rozier said he injured the wrist four games ago against the Clippers but doesn't think it's serious. It seems unlikely that the injury will impact Rozier's offseason workouts. He finished the season averaging 20.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.3 steals in 34.5 minutes.

Rozier delivered 16 points (7-20 FG, 0-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, a steal and a block across 35 minutes in Tuesday's loss against the Pacers.

Rozier struggled from the field in this one but still delivered value with a solid all-around performance, and the speedy point guard had a career-best season despite scoring 16 or fewer points in three of his last four appearances. He ends the campaign averaging a career-high 20.4 points per game while also shooting a career-best 45 percent from the field.

Rozier closed with 22 points (8-19 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, nine assists and three steals in 37 minutes during Sunday's 115-110 loss to Washington.

Rozier did everything he could for the Hornets as they were outscored by 16 points in the final quarter. After being somewhat overlooked during draft season, Rozier has managed to put together the best season of his career. He will need to be at his best as the team enters the play-in tournament where they will face a Pacers team with nothing to lose.

Rozier collected 10 points (3-13 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five assists, four rebounds and two steals in a 113-90 loss to the Clippers on Thursday.

Rozier scored in double figures for the ninth consecutive game despite a very inefficient shooting performance. The guard has averaged a team-high 21.1 points (on just 40.7 percent shooting from the field) over that stretch, adding 4.8 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game.

Rozier registered 21 points (8-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block in 40 minutes during Tuesday's 117-112 loss to the Nuggets.

The 27-year-old followed up Sunday's 43-point explosion with his 35th 20-plus point scoring output of the season. Rozier has been on fire over his last three games, averaging 30.7 points, 5.0 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 4.0 three-pointers and 1.0 steals in that span. The sixth-year guard is averaging career highs in points, assists, steals and three-pointers, and he'll look to keep the good times rolling Thursday at home against the Clippers.

Rozier went off for 43 points (16-26 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and a steal in Sunday's loss to the Pelicans.

Rozier notched his third 40-point effort of the season and set a new career high in the process, but it wasn't quite enough as the Hornets managed only 14 fourth-quarter points in the 112-110 loss. Heading into the final week of the regular season, Rozier will look to put a bow on a strong season that's seen him break out as one of the league's biggest risers in fantasy.

Rozier scored a team-high 28 points (9-20 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 7-9 FT) while adding six assists and five rebounds in 39 minutes during Friday's win over the Magic.

The veteran guard continues to supply consistent production for the Hornets. Rozier has scored in double digits in 13 of the last 14 games, averaging 20.4 points, 6.7 assists, 4.9 boards, 3.1 threes and 1.1 steals over that stretch.

Rozier totaled 12 points (5-16 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and three steals in a 120-99 loss to the Bulls on Thursday.

Rozier wasn't terribly efficient on offense but scored in double figures with three-plus assists for the fifth consecutive contests. Over that stretch, the guard has averaged 17.6 points (on only 35.6 percent shooting from the field), 4.6 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.0 steals per game.

Rozier scored 18 points (8-23 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 0-1 FT) to go along with six assists and two rebounds in Tuesday's win over the Pistons.

Rozier is in the midst of a dreadful shooting spell, as he's converted his field-goal attempts at only at a 34.1 percent clip in his last five games. Volume has carried his scoring through that stretch however, as he's still managed 16.8 points per game. Rozier has also remained a steady -- if unspectacular -- producer of both boards and dimes, averaging 4.2 and 4.1 per game, respectively, for the season.

Rozier scored 15 points (4-18 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 6-6 FT) while adding seven assists, three rebounds and a steal across 36 minutes in Wednesday's loss against the Celtics.

Rozier might have ended as one of five Charlotte players that scored at least 15 points, but he had a woeful night from the field -- he needed 18 shots to reach that scoring output and he's now failed to surpass the 15-point mark in three of his last five appearances. He's shooting a woeful 34 percent from the field (30-88 FG) in that span.

Rozier scored eight points (4-17 FG, 0-7 3Pt) to go along with five rebounds, four assists and one block across 37 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Bucks.

Rozier never got his shot going, but was particularly dreadful in the second half when he went 1-for-8 from the field. It was the first time he failed to score in double digits since March 20, a span of 18 games. Though unexpected, Rozier has managed to average 0.7 blocks across his last 10 games.

Rozier tallied 21 points (8-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt), 11 assists, five rebounds, one steal and one block in 32 minutes during Sunday's 125-104 win over the Celtics.

The 27-year-old now has now scored 20-plus points in six out of his last seven games since returning from a one-game absence, a span in which he's averaging 23.0 points, 8.7 assists, 5.2 rebounds, 3.3 three-pointers and 1.4 steals. Rozier is having his best season to date, averaging career highs in points, three-pointers and steals along with shooting a career-best 46.5 percent from the field. The sixth-year guard will look to make it two wins in a row for the eighth-seeded Hornets Tuesday at home against the Bucks.

Rozier scored 25 points (9-20 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT) while adding six assists, one rebound and one steal in 37 minutes during Friday's win over the Cavaliers.

Since missing one game earlier this month with a sore knee, Rozier has been locked in, averaging 23.3 points, 8.3 assists, 5.3 boards, 3.3 threes and 1.3 steals over the last six contests. The 27-year-old guard was already having a career-best season as a scorer, but the recent spike in his distribution numbers has taken Rozier to another level as a fantasy asset.

Rozier produced 11 points (5-15 FG, 1-6 3Pt), eight assists, three rebounds and a blocked shot across 30 minutes in Thursday's 108-91 loss to the Bulls.

Rozier's eight dimes salvaged an otherwise tepid night from Rozier, who couldn't get anything going as a scorer. Thursday marked his worst scoring total since an eight-point effort against the Clippers last month. Although LaMelo Ball's return is imminent, Rozier's job should still be safe despite his mediocre performance in Thursday's loss.

Rozier accumulated 21 points (8-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight assists and seven rebounds in 38 minutes during Tuesday's loss to the Knicks.

The 27-year-old has been on fire since returning from a one-game absence due to left knee tendinitis, averaging 26.0 points, 9.0 assists, 7.0 rebounds, 4.2 three-pointers and 1.7 steals over his last four games. Rozier is averaging career highs in points, steals, three-pointers and field-goal percentage through 54 games this season. The sixth-year guard should continue garnering a ton of usage the rest of the way for the eighth-seeded Hornets.

Rozier mustered 34 points (13-24 FG, 7-13 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 10 assists, eight rebounds, two steals and a block across 39 minutes in Sunday's win over Portland.

Rozier has double-doubled in back-to-back games for the second time this season, and the point guard continues to have a career-best year across the board. Rozier has scored at least 20 points in three straight games as well and is firmly entrenched as the Hornets' go-to player on offense -- especially with LaMelo Ball (wrist) and Gordon Hayward (foot) still sidelined.

Rozier scored 27 points (12-21 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT) while adding 10 assists, six rebounds and a steal in 40 minutes during Friday's loss to the Nets.

It's his third double-double of the year, all of which have come in his last 11 games. Rozier has also dropped at least 20 points in seven of those contests, averaging 20.7 points, 5.8 boards, 4.9 assists, 3.2 threes and 1.1 steals over that stretch.

Rozier tallied 22 points (9-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt) eight assists, seven rebounds, four steals and one block in 43 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Cavaliers.

The 27-year-old had a brilliant all-around performance in his return to the lineup after missing Tuesday's game with left knee tendinitis. Before Wednesday's game, Rozier was averaging 20.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 3.3 three-pointers over his past 11 games. The sixth-year guard should be good to go Friday on the road against the Nets, but don't be surprised if he sits out future back-to-back sets to rest his knee.

Rozier (knee) will play Wednesday against the Cavaliers.

As expected, Rozier will make his return after missing Tuesday's loss to the Lakers with tendinitis in his knee. The issue will definitely be something to monitor down the stretch, but for now it doesn't appear to be anything that will cause Rozier to miss extended time. Caleb Martin figures to shift to the bench with Rozier back in the lineup.

Rozier (knee) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.

Rozier sat out Tuesday's game against the Lakers due to left knee tendinitis. Across his past five appearances, he's averaged 18.4 points and 4.8 rebounds in 36.0 minutes per game. It's not yet clear whether Rozier will have any restrictions if he's ultimately active.

Rozier (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Lakers.

Rozier was listed as doubtful Tuesday morning, so the writing was on the wall for him to miss his third game of the season. With Gordon Hayward (foot), LaMelo Ball (wrist) and P.J. Washington (ankle) also out, the Hornets will be without four of their regular starters.

Rozier logged 18 points (7-17 FG, 4-9 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, a steal and a blocked shot across 36 minutes in Sunday's 105-101 loss to the Hawks.

Rozier continues to post solid lines with LaMelo Ball )wrist) unavailable. Since Ball's injury, Rozier has averaged 21 points, 5.1 rebounds and 4.2 assists over 10 games. All of these numbers exceed his 2020 season averages.

Rozier had 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block across 33 minutes in Friday's win at Milwaukee.

Rozier was one of three Charlotte players that scored at least 20 points in Friday's win, and while the combo guard is enjoying a career-best season from a scoring perspective, he has been struggling a bit when it comes to his efficiency. Despite averaging 17.2 points per game over his last five appearances, he's done it while shooting just 37.1 percent from the field and 27.9 percent from three-point range.

Rozier dropped 17 points (7-19 FG, 3-10 3Pt) in 40 minutes while adding five assists, two rebounds and a steal Wednesday in the victory over the Magic.

Rozier has struggled shooting, both in general and from beyond the arc, in four straight games to start the month of April. With Gordon Hayward (foot) and Lonzo Ball (wrist) both out a minimum of four weeks, the Hornets' leading scorer will be relied to carry the team as they fight to hang on to their position in the playoff race in the Eastern Conference.

Rozier recorded 22 points (8-19 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block Sunday in a 116-86 loss to the Celtics.

The Hornets were dominated Sunday, but Rozier played his part. He ended a two-game streak of bad shooting nights by logging his sixth game since March 22 with at least 20 points. Rozier is also subject to an improvement in value, as both Gordon Hayward (foot) and LaMelo Ball (wrist) will sit out for a minimum of four weeks recovering from their respective injuries.

Rozier mustered 15 points (6-23 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists, two steals and a block across 39 minutes in Friday's win over the Pacers.

Rozier might have ended with 15 points, but this was a shooting performance he'd like to forget as soon as possible -- the speedy point guard needed 23 shots to reach that tally. Rozier has scored 15 or fewer points in two straight games, but he continues to play a pivotal for the Hornets offensively and has scored in double digits in seven straight contests, putting up at least 20 points in five of those outings. With that in mind, Rozier should be able to bounce back sooner rather than later.

Rozier posted 12 points (4-11 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 27 minutes in Thursday's loss against the Nets.

Rozier was one of three Charlotte starters who put up at least 12 points, but he had a rough night shooting the rock and was unable to display the same effectiveness he'd been showing in recent weeks. This game also ended Rozier's five-game streak with 20 or more points, but he has reached that feat eight times over his last 10 appearances. He could easily bounce back Friday at Indiana -- another team that has been struggling of late.

Rozier scored 27 points (10-20 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, four assists and one block across 39 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Wizards.

Rozier led the way for the Hornets and has now made at least four threes in four consecutive games. He's scored no fewer than 22 points in that span, while also chipping in double digit assists and rebounds in separate contests. Rozier has benefitted from a heavy workload for the Hornets and is averaging 40 minutes per game across his last three contests, which has aided his recent uptick in counting stats.

Rozier tallied 22 points (8-19 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 44 minutes during Sunday's 101-97 overtime loss to the Suns.

The 27-year-old has been on fire since being held to eight points on March 20 against the Clippers, averaging 24.3 points, 5.5 assists, 3.8 three-pointers while shooting 47.1 percent from the field over his last four games. Rozier is averaging career highs in points (20.5), three-pointers (3.3), steals (1.3) and field-goal percentage (47.6) through his first 43 games this season. The sixth-year guard is locked into heavy minutes the rest of the way for the fourth-seeded Hornets.

Rozier had 26 points (9-18 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 4-5 FT), a season-high 11 assists and five rebounds in Friday's win over the Heat.

Rozier and Malik Monk combined for 58 of Charlotte's 110 points, as the Hornets jumped out to a 17-point first-quarter lead and were able to hang on late. Rozier topped 20 points for the third straight game and registered his first double-double of the season. Prior to Friday, Rozier had not handed out more than six assists in any game.

Rozier added 25 points (9-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four assists and three rebounds during Wednesday's win over Houston.

After struggling offensively from the floor over the past two games, Rozier managed to convert 64.3 percent in this one while draining at least three threes for a second consecutive matchup. The guard continues to put together arguably his best season in the league thus far with career highs in points, steals, field-goal and three-point shooting percentages.

Rozier has cleared 20 points in four of his last five games while averaging 4.2 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 2.8 three-pointers in 32.8 minutes per contest during that stretch.

After being limited to eight points in a blowout loss Saturday to the Clippers before exiting early with a bruised hip, Rozier returned to the lineup for Monday's 100-97 win over the Spurs. While he only hit six of 17 shots from the field, Rozier cleaned up at the free-throw line (9-for-10) and chipped in six assists, three three-pointers, three rebounds, two steals and one block. The assists tied his best total of the season, and Rozier could see his production in that category pick up a bit with LaMelo Ball (wrist) out of the picture for the foreseeable future. After sitting out Monday's win, Ball underwent surgery Tuesday and is expected to be out for the next four weeks before being re-evaluated. Ball's absence leaves Devonte' Graham and Rozier as the Hornets' primary ball handlers.

Rozier (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Spurs.

Rozier exited Saturday's game against the Clippers due to a bruised hip, but he'll be able to suit up against San Antonio. Rozier has averaged 18.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.6 assists over 29.4 minutes per game across his past five appearances.

Rozier (hip) is listed as probable for Monday's game against San Antonio.

A bruised hip forced Rozier out of Saturday's loss to the Clippers, but the issue doesn't look to be anything that will cost him additional time. Expect Rozier to be in the stating lineup at his usual spot Monday night as the Hornets enter a four-game week.

Rozier won't return to Saturday's game against the Clippers due to a left hip contusion.

The 27-year-old suffered the injury during the second half and won't retake the court with the Hornets losing in blowout fashion. Rozier struggled prior to the injury with eight points (2-10 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five assists and three rebounds in 26 minutes. He should be considered questionable for Monday's matchup with the Spurs until the team updates his status.

Rozier totaled 21 points (7-13 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two steals in a 129-104 loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.

Rozier was able to score 21 points in 27 minutes despite not playing in the fourth quarter. The guard was also able to contribute a handful of rebounds, assists and steals in the blowout loss. Rozier has had a good start to the second half of the season, averaging a team-high 20.3 points with 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.5 steals per game.

Rozier went for 26 points (7-18 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 34 minutes in the win over the Kings on Monday.

Rozier hit a triple with under a minute to go and then sank two free throws to ice the game. He has struggled with his shot lately, going 18-for-45 (40 percent) over his last three outings. While Rozier is a good source for points and some steals, he typically won't add much in the way of rebounds or assists.

Rozier suffered a left lower leg contusion during Saturday's game against the Raptors but is available to return.

The injury appears to be a minor concern since the 26-year-old has been cleared to return, but he could still be held out of the fourth quarter with the Hornets holding a 20-plus point lead most of the evening. If he remains on the bench, Rozier will finish the contest with 17 points (5-13 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three assists, two rebounds and one steal in 22 minutes.

Rozier scored 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and added six assists along with fours steals across 35 minutes in Monday's loss to the Hornets.

Rozier scored only eight points in his previous contest but bounced back with a strong scoring effort Monday. He was also effective on the defensive end of the court, tying a season high with four steals. Rozier has proven to be capable scorer by averaging 20.2 points per game this season, and he is also on pace for a career-best mark with 1.3 steals per contest.

Rozier totaled 24 points (9-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three assists and two rebounds in a loss to Golden State on Friday.

Rozier trailed only Malik Monk in scoring for the Hornets in the contest and broke out of a mini two-game slump during which he totaled only 22 points and shot a combined 8-for-22 from the field. Though the shooting guard didn't contribute much aside from scoring, he did drain a trio of treys and shot an efficient 9-for-16 from the field. Rozier is in the midst of his finest NBA season with per-game averages of 20.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.3 steals.

Rozier had 10 points (3-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 124-121 win over the Suns.

The 26-year-old also committed a season-high six turnovers. Rozier had a stretch four consecutive 30-point games earlier in February, but he has 22 points on 8-for-22 shooting across the past two contests.

Rozier scored 36 points (12-19 FG, 8-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT) while adding four assists, three rebounds and a steal across 39 minutes in Saturday's win over the Warriors.

Rozier was Chartotte's hero Saturday, draining two late free throws following Draymond Green's ejection to even things up and then hitting the game-winning shot under pressure. Rozier also continued his stellar play of recent days, as he surpassed the 30-point mark for the fourth straight game and is averaging 28.6 points per game in seven appearances during the current month.

Rozier and the Hornets will not play Wednesday against the Bulls or Friday against the Nuggets after the games were postponed, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

The postponements stem from positive COVID-19 tests within the Spurs, who faced off against the Hornets on Sunday. Charlotte will now conduct contact tracing before resuming play. As of now, Charlotte's next scheduled game is Saturday against Golden State.

Rozier recorded 33 points (14-29 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block Sunday in a 122-110 loss to the Spurs.

The Hornets were without Gordon Hayward (back), so Rozier was put in charge of their scoring Sunday. He responded by logging a career high in field-goal attempts (29) and his third consecutive game with over 30 points. Considering the Hornets also lost Devonte' Graham (knee) during Sunday's game, Rozier could receive a lot more usage if both Graham and Hayward remain out due to their injuries.

Rozier went off for 41 points (13-20 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 9-9 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal across 41 minutes Friday during the Hornets' 120-114 victory over the Timberwolves.

Rozier has not been shy about putting up shots recently. The former first-round pick has put up 14 shots or more in five straight games while taking no less than eight three-pointers in each of those games. In the process, Rozier has games of 26, 34, and 41 points during that stretch. What has to make fantasy managers even happier is that he's hitting 56.8 percent of his field goals and 50 percent of his treys.

Rozier notched 34 points (12-17 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three assists and a steal across 33 minutes in Wednesday's loss against the Grizzlies.

This was Rozier's second-best scoring output since he delivered 42 points in the season opener, and it was also just the third time he managed to score more than 25 points since the beginning of the current calendar year. Rozier has been forced to adjust to a lesser role with the presence of LaMelo Ball in the starting lineup, though he remains a more-than-capable scorer -- he has scored at least 15 points in seven of his last eight appearances.

Rozier scored 15 points (6-14 FG, 3-8 3Pt), and added four assists, three rebounds and one steal over 27 minutes during Monday's win over the Rockets.

Rozier has attempted double-digit shots now in each of his three games during the month of February. Since returning from an ankle injury, he is averaging 18.6 points per game while shooting 47.7 percent from the floor, including 40 percent from deep.

Rozier posted 26 points (9-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four assists, three rebounds and one block over 30 minutes in Sunday's 119-97 win over the Wizards.

Rozier scored 15 points in his return to the court Friday, and he put up his second-highest scoring total of the season in Sunday's win over Washington. The 26-year-old shot 64.3 percent from the field and led the team on the scoreboard. He's now averaging 19.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists over 30.7 minutes per game across his past six appearances.

Rozier scored 15 points (6-16 FG, 2-8 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with four rebounds, five assists and three steals across 36 minutes in Friday's loss to the Jazz.

Rozier returned from a two-game absence due to an ankle injury and immediately recaptured his usual workload. He struggled with his shot, but took on a greater ball-handling role in the absence of Devonte' Graham (groin) to reach at least five assists in a game for only the fifth time this season. If Graham is forced to miss further action, Rozier should maintain an increased role in the team's offense.

Rozier (ankle) will play in Friday's matchup with the Jazz, Justin Grasso of SI.com reports.

Rozier was listed as probable heading into the evening, so no surprise here. He will return from a two-game absence. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual role in the team's backcourt.

Rozier (ankle) is probable for Friday's game against the Jazz, Sam Perley of Hornets.com reports.

After a two-game absence due to a sprained right ankle, Rozier should be back in action Friday. He'll presumably return to the starting five, which would push LaMelo Ball back to the bench.

Rozier (ankle) is unavailable Wednesday against the 76ers, Rod Boone of The Hive Vibes reports.

The 26-year-old was considered questionable with a right ankle sprain and will be sidelined for the second consecutive contest. LaMelo Ball will receive another start for Charlotte in Rozier's absence.

Rozier (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Rod Boone of The Hive Vibes reports.

Rozier missed his first game of the season in Monday's win over the Heat, which gave LaMelo Ball and Malik Monk expanded roles. If the starting shooting guard is forced to miss any more time, Monk could have a chance to build off his career-high effort of 36 points from Monday.

Rozier (ankle) won't play Monday against the Heat.

The 26-year-old was considered questionable after suffering a right ankle sprain during Saturday's game against the Bucks, and he won't be available for Monday's contest. Rookie LaMelo Ball will receive the first start of his career in Rozier's absence, and Malik Monk could also have an increased role off the bench.

Rozier (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Heat.

Rozier sprained his right ankle during Saturday's win over the Bucks, putting his status for Monday's contest in jeopardy. If Rozier is forced to miss his first game of the season, Malik Monk could see a start.

Rozier won't return to Saturday's matchup with the Bucks due to a right ankle sprain, Rick Bonnell of The Charlotte Observer reports.

The 26-year-old had 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during the first half, and he appeared to suffer the injury right before halftime. LaMelo Ball is starting the second half in Rozier's absence, and Malik Monk could also see increased run off the bench.

Rozier dropped 19 points (7-12 FG, 5-8 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 32 minutes in Friday's win over the Pacers.

Rozier has made a living from beyond the arc this season, knocking down multiple triples in all but three games. In his second season with the Hornets, Rozier is scoring 18.9 points per game while knocking down 43.2 percent of his three-pointers, both are career bests.

Rozier scored 20 points (8-18 FG, 3-9 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with four rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block across 33 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Pacers.

Rozier led the Hornets in scoring despite a relatively inefficient shooting performance. After a brief stretch of quiet performances, Rozier has bounced back to score 24 and 20 points in his last two contests. Rozier also continues to contribute on the defensive end of the floor, as he's averaging career-best marks of 1.4 steals and 0.5 blocks per game to this point in the campaign.

Rozier scored 24 points (10-18 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT) while adding two assists, a steal and a block in 35 minutes during Monday's 117-108 loss to the Magic.

He tied Gordon Hayward for the team scoring lead, but Devonte' Graham was the only other Hornet to supply more than 11 points on the night. Rozier had managed only 17 points combined in his prior two outings, but his production remains a little erratic as Monday was the first time all year the 26-year-old guard didn't grab at least two boards. Overall, however, Rozier's numbers during his second season with Charlotte has been very similar to his first.

Rozier had 24 points (9-19 FG, 6-12 3Pt), nine rebounds, two assists and one steal in Saturday's 116-113 loss to the Raptors.

Rozier's performance Saturday marked the second time he has scored above five treys this calendar year. Since Jan. 2, Rozier has posted an average of 19.4 points across his past nine games. He also averaged 6.9 three-pointer attempts while shooting 46.4 percent from deep in that span.

Rozier recorded 22 points (10-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five assists, three rebounds, two steals and one block in 37 minutes during Thursday's 111-108 loss to the Raptors.

With Gordon Hayward (hip) sidelined, Rozier put on his fourth 20-point performance of the season while handing out five assists for just the third time this season. He hasn't gotten to the free-throw line in two games, but that figures to change soon.

Rozier went for 18 points (8-18 FG, 2-5 3Pt), six rebounds and one steal over 36 minutes during Wednesday's 104-93 loss to the Mavs.

Rozier has now led the Hornets in scoring in five of 12 games this season and could be relied to carry a heavier load depending on the team handles Gordon Hayward's hip strain.

Rozier registered 23 points (8-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and four steals across 35 minutes in Saturday's win over the Hawks.

Rozier has struggled with his shot from time to time and, while he's been a reliable double-digit scoring threat for the Hornets, he has topped the 20-point mark in just three of his 10 contests to date. The addition of LaMelo Ball and the presence of PJ Washington and Devonte' Graham conspire against his upside, but Rozier remains a capable scorer and should remain valuable across most formats as long as he sees enough playing time.

Rozier dropped 12 points (3-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four assists, three rebounds and one block in 29 minutes in Monday night's 118-101 loss to the 76ers.

After dropped 35 points Saturday against the Sixers, Rozier followed up that performance with a dud. Monday marked the first time this season he failed to take 10 shots in a game. Since the calendar went to 2021, Rozier has shot less than 40 twice and has nearly as many turnovers (seven) as assists (nine).

Rozier had 35 points (12-18 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three assists, two rebounds and one steal in Saturday's 127-112 loss against the Sixers.

Rozier is benefiting as the prime recipient of passes from the likes of LaMelo Ball, Devonte' Graham and Gordon Hayward. This was demonstrated Saturday, with eight of Rozier's made shots coming off assists from the three primary ball handlers. He is now averaging a team-high 23.2 points through six games.

Rozier only scored six points (1-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-3 FT) while adding two rebounds, two assists and a steal in 28 minutes during Friday's loss against the Grizzlies.

Rozier was due for some regression in his shooting percentages, and that was exactly the case Friday -- the electric combo guard put up woeful numbers in this game and only made one of his 11 field-goal attempts. He will try to bounce back Saturday in a tough matchup against the 76ers.

Rozier notched 18 points (8-17 FG, 2-7 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists and a block in 30 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Mavericks.

Rozier kicked off the season with a 42-point performance against the Cavaliers and, while he hasn't been able to reach the 20-point plateau in each of his subsequent three games, he's been scoring at a high clip thus far. Rozier is never going to be an accurate shooter from the field, but he should remain valuable as long as he continues to hold a sizable role in the Hornets' offense.

Rozier delivered 19 points (7-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 30 minutes in Sunday's win over the Nets.

Rozier's highlight of the game was a thunderous dunk over Kevin Durant, but the veteran playmaker delivered yet another strong performance Sunday. Rozier has scored at least 19 points in each of his first three games of the campaign and, while the 42-point effort on Opening Night was an outlier, there's no question most of his upside will be tied to his scoring numbers -- and Rozier seems set to remain as one of Charlotte's go-to guys on offense moving forward.

Rozier scored 19 points (5-15 FG, 2-7 3PT, 7-9 FT) to go along with three rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block across 31 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Thunder.

Rozier couldn't replicate his massive performance in the Hornets' opening contest, particularly from a shooting perspective. Even so, he received over 30 minutes and was able to take enough shots to turn in decent counting stats. Though it's only been two games. Rozier has done particularly well defensively, racking up four steals and two blocks early on.

Rozier recorded 42 points (15-23 FG, 10-16 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists, two steals and a block during Wednesday's 121-114 loss at Cleveland.

Rozier seemed set for an uninspired season opener after scoring just twice while Charlotte fell behind by 21 through one half. He proceeded to step up, recording 36 second-half points that helped narrow the deficit. Rozier's 42 marked his best scoring performance since March 9 last season. He will at least hope to have retained value from then considering the roster additions Charlotte made this past offseason.

Rozier scored 20 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3PT, 5-5 FT) while adding seven rebounds, two assists and three steals across 28 minutes in Thursday's preseason win over Orlando.

Rozier continued to build up his workload in the preseason, approaching his playing time average from last season. He filled the stat sheet, though fell behind both LaMelo Ball and Devonte' Graham in terms of usage. Rozier's role in the offense could slip a bit further when Gordon Hayward (finger) is able to return to the floor.

Rozier scored 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-5 3PT, 2-4 FT), had three rebounds, and two assists in 24 minutes of Monday's 112-109 preseason loss to Toronto.

Rozier matched the team-high in points with 15 and also played a team-high 24 minutes along with four other regular starters. The guard broke out last season after earning a starting role for the first time in his career and should be expected to build on his career year in an improved Hornets team during the new campaign.

Rozier (illness) is out for Wednesday's contest against the Heat.

Coming off a career night, Rozier has come down with an illness and will miss his first game since Feb. 12. Cody and Caleb Martin could see extra minutes, while Devonte' Graham may end up with even more playmaking responsibilities.

Rozier finished with 40 points (15-26 FG, 8-13 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four boards, three assists, and one steal in 44 minutes of a loss to the Hawks.

Rozier set a new career scoring high in the double overtime thriller. It was the third time in the last four games Rozier has dropped at least 20 points on an opponent. The fifth year pro was especially efficient from deep, where half of his attempts from the field came from and contributed to his high scoring total.

Rozier recorded 20 points (8-18 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and five assists in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 104-103 loss to the Spurs.

Rozier had 13 points (6-18 Fg, 0-3 3PT, 1-1 FT), four assists and three boards in Sunday's loss to the Bucks.

Rozier tallied 26 points (7-15 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), four assists, three rebounds and one steal in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 107-101 win over the Knicks.

Rozier had combined for 15 points on 24 field-goal attempts across the last two tilts, and he's in the midst of his worst month thus far this season. Still, Rozier turned in a solid line in this one and will try to carry the momentum into Friday's matchup versus the Raptors.

Rozier finished with three points (2-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt), seven assists and three rebounds in 26 minutes during the Hornets' 119-80 loss to the Pacers on Tuesday.

Rozier didn't score until midway through the second quarter and spent most of the second half on the bench. The Hornets won't lose by 39 every night, so owners should take the poor performance with a grain of salt. Still, Rozier hasn't scored more than 20 points since late January.

Rozier recorded 14 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 32 minutes during Thursday's 103-93 win over the Bulls.

Rozier returned to the lineup following a one-game absence with a sore knee and was efficient offensively but pretty quiet overall. Those who were expecting him to rack up counting stats galore playing the role of primary offensive option have been let down this season. Nevertheless, Rozier has at least been significantly better than expected from an efficiency standpoint.

Rozier was removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against Chicago.

Rozier missed the final game before the break due to a sore left knee, but he was able to practice Tuesday and has now been cleared of the injury report. Expect Rozier to slot back into the starting lineup alongside Devonte' Graham.

Rozier (knee) fully practiced Tuesday and is expected to play Thursday against the Bulls, Rod Boone of The Athletic reports.

Rozier was a late scratch for the Hornets' final game before the break due to left knee soreness, but all signs are pointing to him being ready for Thursday. Since the new year, he's averaging 19.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 35.9 minutes.

Rozier is a late scratch for Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves due to left knee soreness, Rod Boone of The Athletic reports.

Rozier wasn't on the Hornets' injury report prior to being ruled out, and he'll end up missing a game for the first time this season. In his absence, Malik Monk and Dwayne Bacon are candidates to see expanded roles.

Rozier recorded 20 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-7 FT), five rebounds and four assists in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 125-110 loss to the Rockets.

Rozier got off to a strong start before fading in the second half, though he did provide a solid stat line overall. He's maintaining career-high per-game averages in points, dimes, threes, steals and minutes while shooting career-best percentages from the field, from beyond the arc and at the charity stripe.

Rozier notched 10 points (3-12 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, three assists and three turnovers in 35 minutes during Saturday's 114-90 loss at San Antonio.

Rozier got off to a surprisingly hot start in January, but he has gone ice cold of late. Over his last five games, the former Celtics point guard is averaging 15.6 points but shooting 36.8 percent from the field and 31.0 percent from deep while attempting 13.6 shots per game. He will probably find a way to score due to nightly volume, but those efficiency woes certainly conspire against his upside.

Rozier scored 30 points (9-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 8-8 FT) and added 10 rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 97-92 win over the Knicks.

Rozier posted 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, five assists and a steal in 37 minutes during Friday's loss to Milwaukee.

Rozier had the first regular-season bucket on French soil in NBA history, but ultimately finished with a below-average showing. Nonetheless, it was a step up from his four-point dud on Monday. An exploitable matchup against the Knicks is up next for Rozier.

Rozier had four points (0-6 FG, 0-3 3PT, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals in 31 minutes during Monday's 106-86 loss against the Magic.

Rozier started January on a strong note, but he has failed to score more than five points in two of his last four outings while shooting 33.3 percent from the field over that span. He seems to have cooled off, but he is still averaging 21.2 points per game during the first month of 2020. He will face another tough matchup Friday as the Hornets will play against the Bucks in Paris.

Rozier had 25 points (8-18 FG, 4-8 3PT, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 39 minutes during Monday's 115-112 loss at Portland.

Rozier was coming off a five-point performance (1-10 FG, 0-5 3PT) the last time out, but he bounced back admirably and extended his sizzling run of form since the start of the current month. The former Celtics guard is averaging 23.9 points per game since the start of January, and he will try to deliver another strong performance Wednesday at Denver.

Rozier posted five points (1-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes Sunday in the Hornets' 100-92 loss to the Suns.

There's no way to spin this sort of outing as a positive, but Rozier is probably deserving of a mulligan after a red-hot start to January.

Rozier has topped the 20-point mark in each of his last five games, and he seems to have taken over the role as Charlotte's go-to guy on offense due to Devonte' Graham's recent struggles. The former Celtics guard is averaging 27.4 points while shooting 51.1 percent from the field and 45.8 percent from three-point range. While those figures might be unsustainable moving forward, he will aim to extend his strong run of play Sunday at Phoenix.

Rozier scored 27 points (9-24 FG, 5-14 3Pt, 4-5 FT) while adding three assists and three steals in 46 minutes during Wednesday's 112-110 overtime loss to the Raptors.

He led all scorers on the night, but Rozier missed his chance to play hero when his three-pointer attempt at the buzzer in OT failed to fall.
