Top JT Thor News

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Returns to bench

    Thor isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game versus the Bucks, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Thor and Theo Maledon will head to the bench due to the return of Brandon Miller and Gordon Hayward to the starting lineup Friday. With Miles Bridges also back from suspension, Thor could see his minutes drastically decrease.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Irrelevant in start

    Thor contributed five points (2-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 111-105 loss to the Heat.

    Thor started with Gordon Hayward (hamstring) out, but he failed to capitalize on the opportunity. There was preseason hype for a Thor breakout entering his third season, but no such output has occurred yet. The 21-year-old is a good defensive piece for Charlotte, but his fantasy upside is non-existent.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Gets starting nod

    Thor is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Heat, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Thor will replace Gordon Hayward (hamstring) in the starting lineup Tuesday. Thor is averaging 4.3 points and 3.8 assists in 19.0 minutes across his first nine appearances this season, but he should see an increased role with Charlotte dealing with extensive injuries.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Sees 19 minutes

    Thor finished with seven points (3-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists over 19 minutes during Monday's 133-121 loss to the Nets.

    Thor has had a pretty decent role so far this season, averaging 4.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.7 three-pointers in 21.3 minutes per game. Thor had a strong offseason which earned him the trust of the coaching staff, and it's worth keeping a close eye on his workloads going forward.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Efficient shooting in loss

    Thor registered 12 points (3-6 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and a steal over 22 minutes in Tuesday's 113-109 preseason loss to the Heat.

    Thor attempted just 1.8 three-point shots over 69 regular-season games last year, but his early willingness to shoot from behind the arc could be promising. He was able to string together four starts at the end of 2022-23 and scored double-digit points in four of his last six games, but that came with multiple starters sidelined.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Solid output in starting role

    Thor closed with 13 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 120-100 loss to the Raptors.

    Thor drew reasonably close to a double-double in Tuesday's contest and showed some ability to protect the rim with a pair of swats. He's averaging 10.0 points, 3.6 boards and a block per contest over the last 10 games and should continue to see healthy minutes over the last two regular-season games as the Hornets sit the regulars in the rotation.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Hefty minutes on tap Tuesday

    Head coach Steve Clifford relayed Tuesday that Thor should receive additional run against the Raptors, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Thor has played 34-plus minutes in two of his last three games, so he likely doesn't have much further to expand his workload. That said, the Hornets are expected to be without the entirety of their starting unit, so the coaching staff could lean on Thor to give them as many minutes as he can handle. Kai Jones is also expected to log some time at power forward Tuesday as the Hornets deploy some unusual lineups.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Nears double digits as starter

    Thor posted eight points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and two rebounds across 34 minutes during Sunday's 128-108 loss to Toronto.

    Thor got a start in Sunday's contest against Toronto in place of the injured P.J. Washington (foot), finishing two points short of the double-digit scoring mark in the loss. Thor has tallied eight or more points in six straight outings.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Nabs starting spot

    Thor will start Sunday's game against the Raptors.

    Thor will benefit from the absence of four of the team's usual five starters, stepping into the power forward position in place of P.J. Washington (foot). In four starts this season, Thor has averaged 2.8 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 22.9 minutes but figures to see a larger role Sunday with Charlotte severely shorthanded.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Solid production off bench

    Thor registered 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one block across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 137-134 win over the Thunder.

    With numerous regulars sidelined, Thor saw an increased role and notched season highs in made field goals, points, assists and minutes played. Over his last seven appearances, Thor has averaged 9.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 21.4 minutes off the bench, but his fantasy value will be significantly diminished when Gordon Hayward (thumb) or Kelly Oubre (shoulder) is cleared to suit up again.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Efficient performance off bench

    Thor chipped in 12 points (4-8 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, two blocks and three steals in 18 minutes during Friday's 117-109 win over Dallas.

    Thor has failed to reach the 20-minute mark in eight of his last 10 outings off the bench, but he has remained valuable after scoring nine or more points in four of his previous five contests during that stretch. That said, his contributions are not enough to make him valuable in fantasy, even in the deepest formats.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Sees extended playing time Thursday

    Thor finished Thursday's 115-96 loss to the Pelicans with nine points (3-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 27 minutes.

    With Terry Rozier (foot), Kelly Oubre (shoulder) and Dennis Smith (illness) all leaving the contest early, Thor garnered an increased role and played his second-most minutes of the season. If Rozier and Oubre remain sidelined moving forward, Thor should be a candidate for a similar role on a regular basis, but his fantasy value would likely be tied to his defensive production, as he's scored in double figures just three times this season.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Unproductive in 19 minutes

    Thor provided five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt) and three rebounds in 19 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 loss to the Cavaliers.

    Thor failed to put up anything close to fantasy-relevant production Sunday, despite logging 19 minutes. Although he has been a consistent part of the rotation for most of the season, his playing time is typically reliant on the production of others. Given he is well outside the top 400 for the season, he should not be on anyone's fantasy radar.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Starting against Miami

    Thor is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Heat.

    Thor will get the nod at power forward over P.J. Washington, who has been ruled out due to a right foot strain. This will be Thor's first start of the campaign, and he's cleared the 20-minute threshold just once during this season.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Used sparingly again Tuesday

    Thor recorded two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound over 10 minutes during Tuesday's 124-115 loss to the Bucks.

    While he has been able to carve out a regular spot in the rotation, Thor remains on the outside looking in when it comes to meaningful minutes. He has played more than 15 minutes only twice in the past three weeks, failing to score more than five points in any of those games. The Hornets are running a tight rotation at the moment, so while he figures to be out there in some capacity, he is not someone to consider, even in deeper formats.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Fails to score in 11 minutes

    Thor recorded zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 11 minutes during Monday's 130-118 loss to Boston.

    Thor remains on the fringe of the rotation, playing fewer than 15 minutes for the fifth straight game. In that time, he has scored a combined 15 points, adding a solitary steal and zero blocks. It feels as though he might struggle to have a meaningful NBA career.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Returns to Charlotte

    The Hornets recalled Thor back to the Hornets on Wednesday.

    Thor will end his third G League assignment with the Greensboro Swarm. Thor is averaging 2.5 points and 2.1 rebounds in 10.4 minutes across 14 games for the Hornets this season.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Back to G League

    Charlotte assigned Thor to the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Sunday.

    Thor didn't appear in Saturday's matchup against the Bucks and will head back to the G League after just one day with the NBA squad. He figures to get extended run during his stint with the Swarm.

  • Hornets' JT Thor: Rejoins Hornets

    The Hornets recalled Thor from the G League on Saturday.

    Thor should provide some depth in the frontcourt for Charlotte and could see brief run in a banged-up Hornets rotation. Even if he does, it's unlikely to be enough for him to warrant fantasy consideration.
