Vooch should get more opportunities with No Zach Levine. Plus you know I love playing against Charlotte’s D any chance I get. So many way for a stat sheet stuffer to stuff the stat sheet.

LaMelo Ball (ankle) is likely going to be out for a while. That means that it’s Terry Rozier’s time to run the show for the Hornets. He’s not a stranger to that role, given that Ball only played 36 games last season. That helped Rozier average a career-high 21.1 points per game. Over the last four games without Ball this season, Rozier scored at least 22 points three times. The key was, he averaged 19.0 shot attempts and 36 minutes over that four-game stretch. His expanded role should help him hit this over.

It's been a somewhat disappointing season for Nikola Vucevic and the Bulls who find themselves 7-14 and are rumored to be shopping their entire roster including their trio of All-Stars. While it appears imminent the Bulls will eventually shake things up, in the meantime they get an excellent matchup against a Hornets squad that ranks dead last in Defense and play at the 11th fastest Pace. The Hornets have unsurprisingly been generous to opposing Centers. Chicago will be without their second leading scorer in Zach LaVine which should lead to some additional usage for Vucevic as well. Look for the big man to stuff the stat sheet tonight in what is a plus matchup.

Zach LaVine (foot) is out again for the Bulls. LaVine has missed three previous games this season and Coby White scored at least 23 points in each of them. White has scored at least 19 points in six of his last seven games, overall, and is shooting a robust 40.3% from behind the arc this season. He’ll have a great matchup against the Hornets, who have the worst defensive rating in the league. Don’t expect them to be able to slow him down.
