The Hornets assigned Salaun (calf) to the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Monday.
The 2024 first-round pick hasn't made an appearance for the Hornets or the Swarm since March 3 while on the mend from a left calf strain, but his assignment to the G League indicates that he'll likely practice with the affiliate Monday and potentially return to action in its playoff opener Tuesday versus the Maine Celtics. Salaun will likely rejoin the Hornets once the Swarm's playoff run comes to an end, but he's not expected to be a regular part of the rotation when Charlotte is at full strength.

Hornets' Tidjane Salaun: Out again Sunday
Rotowire
Salaun (calf) won't play in Sunday's game against Boston.
Salaun hasn't played since March 3, and at this rate, it's anyone's guess on how much longer he will be on the shelf. The 20-year-old wasn't a consistent producer for Charlotte before his extended absence, although he still enjoyed a relatively stable role in the rotation. With Salaun still sidelined, Sion James should see an increase in opportunity.
