- Injuries · ProCoby White and Kon Knueppel go into opening week hurt, and who starts for CharlotteWhite missed the whole preseason with a calf strain and Knueppel is unsure for the opener with a hamstring, which puts Dennis Schröder and Grayson Allen in line for starts.
- StrategyIf your league charges for missed threes, Brandon Miller and Curry fall and the bigs riseA half-point charge for each missed three drops Brandon Miller 15 places on our ESPN points board and Stephen Curry nine, and lifts Rudy Gobert from 70th to 51st.
- Strategy · ProSleeper's Lock-In format makes Embiid, Kyrie and George better picksWhen only one game a week counts, a player who misses games costs you far less, and our Sleeper board moves Joel Embiid nine places and Kyrie Irving and Paul George five.

About the Hornets depth chart
Charlotte Hornets depth chart for 2026-27 fantasy basketball
This is the Charlotte Hornets (CHA) depth chart for the 26-27 NBA season, position by position: who starts, who backs up, who is out and each player’s fantasy rank, read from Sleeper’s chart every night.
The Hornets’ first choices are Dennis Schröder at point guard (standing in while Coby White is out), Grayson Allen at shooting guard, Brandon Miller at small forward, Moussa Diabaté at power forward and Naz Reid at center.
Their best fantasy asset on our points projections is Brandon Miller, ranked 34th.
Coby White, Grant Williams, Kon Knueppel and Kylan Boswell are listed as unable to play.
To use this chart in a fantasy league, the NBA fantasy schedule counts how many games the Hornets play each week, the NBA fantasy trade analyzer prices a deal for any of them, and the fantasy basketball rankings set them against every other player in the league.
