Charlotte Hornets guard Kon Knueppel will be sidelined for approximately four weeks due to a left hamstring strain, the team announced. Fellow guard Dennis Schröder is also expected to miss time with an unspecified injury.
Knueppel made his season debut on Wednesday but departed the game early after appearing to re-aggravate the hamstring issue. The rookie's absence adds to the Hornets' backcourt challenges early in the campaign.
