Hornets' Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (back) is out Friday against Toronto
Charlotte Hornets small forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is out on Friday with lower back soreness.
What It Means:
A replacement hasn't been announced for Kidd-Gilchrist, who was originally listed as "probable" for the game, but Nicolas Batum and Marco Belinelli stand to see increased minutes in his absence.
Our models project Batum for 14.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.5 3-pointers in 34.3 minutes of action tonight. Belinelli is expected to score 11.3 points and 1.3 3-pointers in 26.4 minutes.
