Aleksej Pokusevski Latest News
Sees just 13 minutes
Pokusevski chipped in four points (1-2 FG, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block in 13 minutes during Tuesday's 130-104 loss to the Mavericks. Pokusevski saw a very light workload Tuesday, as Brandon Miller and Miles Bridges combined to score 43 points in the loss. Pokusevski has played well during his time with the Hornets, averaging 7.2 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 18.8 minutes.
Cleared to play in Monday's game
Pokusevski (illness) is available for Monday's game against the Celtics. Pokusevski was doubtful for Monday's matchup, but he'll be able to return from a one-game absence. Assuming he's fully healthy, Pokusevski could see an uptick in playing time since Nick Richards (foot) has been ruled out.
Doubtful for Monday
Pokusevski (illness) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Celtics. Pokusevski is expected to miss his second game in a row, and that's bad news for a Charlotte team that is very shorthanded. In his absence, Davis Bertans could see more run after playing 25 minutes against the Clippers on Sunday.
Unavailable Sunday
Pokusevski (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Clippers. Pokusevski will miss his first contest since settling in with the Hornets after a brief G League stint. The 22-year-old averaged 7.8 points and 5.0 rebounds in 22.6 minutes across his last five appearances, which leaves a sizable workload behind for Grant Williams, Davis Bertans and potentially Leaky Black to fill.
Questionable for Sunday
Pokusevski is questionable for Saturday's game against the Clippers due to an illness. The Hornets are already very shorthanded, so they would be in rough shape if Pokusevski isn't able to play. Pokusevski has averaged 19.4 minutes in March to go with 6.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals.
Solid defensive numbers off bench
Pokusevski notched 11 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals in 19 minutes off the bench during Monday's 115-92 loss to the Cavaliers. It was the first time all season the 22-year-old forward had scored more than 10 points. Pokusevski has worked his way into a consistent role in Charlotte's frontcourt rotation since being recalled from the G League in early March, playing double-digit minutes in seven straight games. Over that stretch, he's averaged 6.1 points, 4.1 boards, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks in 20.9 minutes a contest. It would likely take an injury ahead of him on the depth chart to put him on the fantasy radar, but Pokusevski's defensive production could be intriguing with an increased workload.
Returns to NBA
The Hornets recalled Pokusevski from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Saturday. Pokusevski will return to the NBA after a short stint in the G League. However, the 21-year-old big man is unlikely to receive significant playing time for the Hornets.
Recalled to Hornets
Charlotte recalled Pokusevski from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Monday. Pokusevski latched on with Charlotte after being waived by Oklahoma City at the end of February. He will likely get some opportunities to impress with the Hornets down the stretch, as they are dealing with a ton of injuries all over the roster.
Signs with Charlotte
Pokusevski agreed to a contract with Charlotte on Tuesday after being waived by Oklahoma City last week, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Pokusevski, the 17th overall pick of the 2020 NBA Draft, has dealt with myriad of injuries across three-plus seasons in Oklahoma City. However, the 22-year-old flashed potential in 34 appearances in 2022-23, averaging 8.1 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.1 three-pointers in 20.6 minutes while shooting 39.5 percent from three-point range. A skinny frame likely precludes the seven-foot Serbian from evolving into a full-time center, but he will likely take priority over JT Thor for third-string minutes in the Hornets' frontcourt moving forward.
