Hornets' Michael Kidd-Gilchrist: Probable for Friday

Kidd-Gilchrist (back) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Raptors.

Kidd-Gilchrist suffered a lower-back strain during Monday's contest with the Pacers, but was ultimately cleared for a return to the court and was back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's win over the Jazz, playing 33 minutes. While he's still not completely over the injury, Kidd-Gilchrist's probable status suggests that he's not at much risk of sitting out Friday. He should be in line for another full workload.
