Charlotte Hornets power forward P.J. Washington (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He is dealing with a right knee sprain and is being considered day-to-day. Jalen McDaniels should see increased playing time with Washington out. We may also get a more extended look at rookie Kai Jones, who has only played two minutes so far this season. Washington is off to a rough start to the year. He's shot 27.3% from the field while averaging just 6.0 points and 5.3 rebounds per game. Fantasy managers should remain patient with Washington, who had a solid year in 2020-21, averaging 12.9 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 1.8 threes per game.

Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The young forward was able to play 26 minutes on Sunday. The fact it's a back-to-back set could mean Washington sits out this game as a precaution. Jalen McDaniels would likely be asked to fill in, assuming Washington sits this game out. Fantasy managers should check back closer to game time for more information.
