Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Solid all-around performance
Salaun racked up 16 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-9 FT), five rebounds, one block and two steals over 27 minutes during Monday's 97-89 loss to the Nets.
Salaun logged 27 minutes in Monday's loss to the Nets and was one of only three players for Charlotte to score in double figures. The rookie big man finished with 16 points, well over his average in that department of 5.3 points per game and one point off his career-high total of 17. The French import may continue to see more time on the floor if he can keep up this kind of production off the bench for the Hornets.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Logs 22 minutes in return
Salaun (illness) tallied 10 points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 22 minutes Wednesday in the Hornets' 112-102 loss to the Bucks.
Salaun hadn't played with the G League's Greensboro Swarm or the Hornets for the past week due to an illness, but he made a timely return to action Wednesday for a Charlotte squad that was without seven players due to injury. Though the rookie first-round pick showed well during his time on the court, he'll be a prime candidate to see his minutes get cut once the Hornets get healthier and are able to incorporate trade-deadline pickup Dalton Knecht into the rotation.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Doubtful for Monday
Salaun (illness) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Wizards.
Though the Hornets recalled Salaun from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Sunday, he had missed the Swarm's most recent two games Friday and Saturday versus the Capital City Go-Go due to the illness. He apparently hasn't fully moved past the ailment and looks to be trending toward sitting out Monday.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Rejoins parent club
The Hornets recalled Salaun (illness) from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Sunday.
Salaun is not listed on the injury report for Monday's game against Washington, so he'll presumably be available to play after he wasn't available for either of the Swarm's matchups with the Capital City Go-Go on Friday and Saturday while battling an illness. The rookie first-round pick has been a member of the Charlotte rotation for much of the season, but he was sent to the G League on Jan. 18 after his playing time at the NBA level had begun to trend down.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Heads to locker room
Salaun (ankle) headed to the locker room during the first quarter of Thursday's game against the Knicks, Steve Popper of Newsday reports.
The rookie forward got injured during a fast break when Josh Hart tried to cut him off. Even though he remained in the game to shoot free throws, he fouled Jalen Brunson to exit the game, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return. If he doesn't, then Josh Green would be a candidate to see more minutes at power forward.

Salaun is averaging 3.3 points and 2.3 rebounds per game in his first six appearances, but he should be in line for a sizable uptick in minutes Friday.
