The Charlotte Hornets (3-4) host the Pistons (5-1) Monday, looking to end a three-game skid, which began with a loss last Wednesday against Detroit. Although Charlotte has struggled as of late, they'll receive a boost for Monday night's matchup, as former UNC guard Coby White is set to make his 2026-27 season debut after missing the first seven games with a calf injury. That said, the home team will still be without Kon Knueppel and Grant Williams, who are dealing with hamstring strains.
For Detroit, sharpshooter Isaiah Joe has been listed as questionable with a hip injury. Jalen Duren, a first-time All-Star last season, has also been ruled out due to a hamstring strain.
