By: Stan Son

UPDATE: Knueppel will not return tonight.


With 6:09 left in the first quarter of Wednesday’s game against the Brooklyn Nets, Charlotte Hornets guard Kon Knueppel was replaced by Sion James. Knueppel casually dribbled the up the court to get the Hornets into an offensive set. After probing a bit, he crossed over and dribbled the ball of his leg. Unfortunately, he injured his hamstring in the process. Knuppel is now in the locker room.

Before exiting, Knueppel contributed three points and two turnovers in six minutes of action. Wednesday marked Knueppel’s debut after missing the start of the season due to a left hamstring strain.

Stay tuned to DraftKings Network for live updates on his status.

More on this game

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
