Top Pat Connaughton News

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Good to go

    Connaughton (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.

    Connaughton has been given the green light to face Golden State on Wednesday despite dealing with left ankle soreness. The 32-year-old has been a minor rotation piece for Charlotte this season, but the absence of Miles Bridges (ankle) could result in more looks for Connaughton.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Bumped up to probable

    Connaughton has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday's game against Golden State.

    Connaughton was initially listed as questionable due to left ankle soreness, but it looks like the veteran will suit up. He hasn't played more than six minutes in any of his last four appearances, but with Miles Bridges (ankle) not expected to play, Connaughton could be part of the rotation against Golden State.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Questionable to face Golden State

    Connaughton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.

    Connaughton is dealing with left ankle soreness and is in jeopardy of missing Wednesday's contest. However, the veteran forward hasn't logged double-digit minutes since Nov. 19, so his potential absence shouldn't affect the Charlotte rotation.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Invisible again Friday

    Connaughton finished with one point (1-2 FT) and one assist over two minutes during Friday's 120-105 win over the Magic.

    Connaughton played no more than six minutes for the fourth straight game, all of which have come during garbage time. At this point, it doesn't appear as though Connaughton is part of the long-term plans in Charlotte, making him a non-factor in all fantasy formats.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Cleared to return

    Connaughton (calf) is available for Saturday's game against Detroit.

    Connaughton will be active for the first time since Nov. 22 due to a strained right calf. The veteran wing is averaging 9.7 minutes across 12 appearances this season, and with the Hornets nearly at full health, he'll likely play sparingly Saturday.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Listed questionable for Saturday

    Connaughton (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against Detroit.

    A right calf strain has shelved the veteran swingman since late November, but he looks to be making progress toward a return to the court. Connaughton figures to have a minutes restriction if he's healthy for Saturday, though his presence could still create a crunch for playing time for Josh Green and Tidjane Salaun.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Remains out

    Connaughton (calf) will remain on the inactive list for Thursday's game versus the Hawks.

    Connaughton hasn't played since Nov. 22 due to a calf injury, and the Hornets have not provided any updates of the 33-year-old making meaningful progress in his recovery. Connaughton should be considered week-to-week moving forward.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Sitting Sunday

    Connaughton (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers.

    Connaughton will miss a 10th consecutive game due to a right calf strain. He can be considered doubtful for Thursday's game against the Hawks until the Hornets provide an update on his status.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Out again Friday

    Connaughton (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Bulls.

    Connaughton will miss his ninth straight game, and there's been no indication that he's close to a return. He can be considered week-to-week.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Another absence coming

    Connaughton (calf) will not play Sunday against Denver.

    Connaughton will miss his eighth game in a row and remains without a timetable to return. He can be considered doubtful for Friday's game against the Bulls until the Hornets provide another update on his status.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Remaining out with calf strain

    Connaughton (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Raptors.

    The Hornets have now ruled out Connaughton for seven consecutive games well ahead of action. The lack of a single upgrade on his status insinuates that the veteran swingman's return from a strained right calf isn't imminent. Connaughton's absence opens up a few extra minutes for Liam McNeeley and Tidjane Salaun.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Another absence coming

    Connaughton (calf) is out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

    The veteran swingman will miss a sixth consecutive game due to a right calf strain, and Friday's clash in Toronto marks his next chance to suit up. In Connaughton's absence, Liam McNeeley should pick up some more playing time off the bench.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Won't play Monday

    Connaughton (calf) is out for Monday's game against the Nets.

    Connaughton will miss a fifth consecutive game due to a right calf strain. Liam McNeeley and Sion James figure to see expanded roles off the bench with Connaughton out of the lineup.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Won't play Saturday

    Connaughton (calf) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Raptors.

    Connaughton will miss a fourth consecutive game due to a right calf strain, so Liam McNeeley and Sion James should continue to see more minutes off the bench. Connaughton's next chance to return is Monday against the Nets.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Out against Chicago

    Connaughton (calf) is out for Friday's game against the Bulls.

    Connaughton will miss a third consecutive contest due to a right calf strain. His next chance to suit up will come against the Raptors on Saturday in the second leg of a back-to-back set. Liam McNeeley and Sion James should see more minutes due to Connaughton being sidelined.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Remaining out vs. New York

    Connaughton (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

    After sustaining a right calf strain in Saturday's loss to the Clippers, Connaughton will miss his second consecutive contest. The veteran swingman's next opportunity to return will come Friday against the Bulls. Liam McNeeley and Sion James are candidates for a slight bump in minutes due to Connaughton being sidelined.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Won't play Sunday

    Connaughton (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

    Connaughton exited Saturday's game against the Clippers early and will miss Sunday's matchup due to a right calf strain. The veteran wing has averaged only 9.7 minutes across 12 appearances this season, so his absence shouldn't significantly affect the rotation, though Liam McNeeley and Sion James could see a slight uptick in minutes.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Won't return Saturday

    Connaughton has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's game against the Clippers due to right calf soreness.

    Connaughton tweaked his right calf during the first half of Saturday's game, and he'll finish the day with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and two rebounds over six minutes. Sion James, Collin Sexton and Liam McNeeley are candidates to see more minutes off the bench due to Connaughton's injury. He is now in jeopardy of being sidelined for the second leg of the Hornets' back-to-back set Sunday against the Hawks.

  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Scores 13 off bench

    Connaughton supplied 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 16 minutes during Wednesday's 127-118 loss to Indiana.

    Connaughton does not have a consistent role among Charlotte's rotation, but with Liam McNeeley (illness) and Tre Mann (ankle) ruled out for Tuesday's contest, he saw more playing time as a result. However, with Mann and McNeeley expected to come back soon, and with Brandon Miller (shoulder) ramping up his return progress, Connaughton will likely find himself out of the rotation again.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Hornets' Pat Connaughton: Upgraded to available

    Connaughton (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Bucks.

    Connaughton was initially listed as probable for this contest, so it's not surprising to see the veteran swingman being upgraded. Connaughton is averaging 8.0 minutes per game across six appearances this season, so he isn't likely to play a big role in the rotation even if available.
