Richards hurt his ankle, questionable.

Are we about to have Mensah start?

So will Collins be back to call this game or is he doubtful as well

Most crucial injury of the season so far. EC is the most watchable part of the Hornets.
Your Charlotte Hornets! We’ll eventually get something right;right?

We deserve to have a playoff season with this crew before they're all gone. I worry Ashley could be gone at any min.

Both Ashley and Collins will work for ESPN or Fox Sports eventually. Dell isn't going anywhere though.

Sort of sad that our broadcast team are a much better team than the actual team.

Are we at the point where we're getting Mark Williams news yet? The last thing they said was "another week and re-evaluated" like 2 weeks ago.

At this point I'm just waiting for the " out for the remainder of the season" tweet

I'd respect that more than keeping it vague with "lower back contusion" and giving us the impression he's not really hurt that bad. Just tell us what's going on so we know what to expect. Is it something that just needs rest? Is it more concerning than that? Is it a disc issue? I get it's a players health and certain things should be private, but the fans deserve to hear communication from the team on what's going on with their star players.

Clifford recently said in a radio interview that Mark is not returning anytime soon, and that is back just isn't responding to any of the treatments like they had hoped.

So at this point, you're looking at a minimum of another month, considering even if his back started feeling better next week, he's still got to get his conditioning back, start practicing, be cleared for games etc.. at which point why not give him an extra week of rest for the All-Star break... and if this drags into late February early march, then at what point do you just decide to shut him down for the season.

My best guess

Returns by ASB 25%
Returns by March 25%
Out for season 50%
