Hornets' Sion James: Off injury report for Sunday
James (hip) is off Charlotte's injury report for Sunday's preseason game against the Thunder.
James will return to game action after missing the Hornets' final four Summer League contests due to a left hip injury. The rookie second-round pick appeared in two Summer League matchups before sustaining the hip injury, averaging 5.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.0 assists across 17.8 minutes per game during that span. James is coming off an efficient 2024-25 season at Duke, where he averaged 8.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game, shooting 51.6 percent from the field and 41.3 percent from beyond the arc in 39 outings.

Hornets' Sion James: Heading to Charlotte
James was selected by the Hornets with the No. 33 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
James spent the final year of his college career at Duke and blossomed into a solid role player, averaging 8.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.3 blocks in 25.6 minutes. His jumper will determine whether he can carve out a role right away, but he should be available to fight for minutes in a rebuilding team. That said, James shouldn't have a lot of fantasy upside in most formats in the early stages of his career.
