Wednesday evening's game at Spectrum Center against the Brooklyn Nets will be a challenging one for Charlotte Hornets head coach Charles Lee to navigate, thanks to injuries piling up once again. Center Mark Williams will sit this one out as the team continues to be cautious with his left foot.

His sophomore season offered a glimpse of what could be. Earning a starting role, playing in 19 of Charlotte’s first 20 contests, the big man played 26.7 minutes per game, averaging, 12.7 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks. Unfortunately, a back contusion ended his season, putting him on the shelf for the final 62 games of the 2023-24 campaign.
