Charlotte Hornets wing Kon Knueppel has been diagnosed with a left hamstring strain and ruled out of Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Knueppel exited Wednesday's loss to the Brooklyn Nets after just six minutes of action, having made his season debut after missing training camp, preseason, and the first eight regular-season games with a prior hamstring issue. The team has not established a timeline for his return.
In additional injury news for Charlotte, starting center Moussa Diabate is listed as questionable due to right quadriceps tendinopathy. Veteran guard Dennis Schröder is also considered questionable for Friday's matchup against Boston due to left thigh soreness.
