Jeffries chipped in 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Friday's 108-98 loss to Philadelphia. Jeffries made the most of a favorable situation, logging a season-high in minutes. Despite playing well off the bench, Jeffries has suited up on just four occasions this season, typically as a result of others falling foul of the injury bug. At this point, there is no reason to think Jeffries will feature as an every-night part of the rotation.

Jeffries chipped in 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Friday's 108-98 loss to Philadelphia. Jeffries made the most of a favorable situation, logging a season-high in minutes. Despite playing well off the bench, Jeffries has suited up on just four occasions this season, typically as a result of others falling foul of the injury bug. At this point, there is no reason to think Jeffries will feature as an every-night part of the rotation.
Jeffries ended Saturday's 116-102 loss to the Cavaliers with 17 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt), six rebounds and one assist in 25 minutes. Jeffries was tied for the second in the Hornets in scoring alongside Josh Green, and he made the most of his 25 minutes off the bench -- an uptick over the 16 minutes he saw in his season debut on Thursday against the Knicks. Jeffries should continue to see steady minutes off the bench as long as the Hornets remain depleted in terms of depth.
Jeffries (hand) tallied eight points (3-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and one assist across 16 minutes in Thursday's 125-101 loss to the Knicks. Jeffries missed the first 20 games of the season while recovering from a fractured right hand before he was cleared to suit up Tuesday against the 76ers. While he didn't play in Tuesday's six-point loss, the blowout nature of Thursday's contest along with the early exit of Tidjane Salaun (ankle) helped open up some minutes for Jeffries. A 27-year-old journeyman who has now seen action for five NBA times during his career, Jeffries is unlikely to be prioritized by Charlotte. He could fall back out of the rotation Saturday versus the Cavaliers if either Salaun or Miles Bridges (knee) is available to play.
Jeffries (hand) is available for Tuesday's game versus the 76ers. Jeffries will be available to make his season debut Tuesday after missing Charlotte's first 18 games due to a fractured right hand. However, with Mark Williams and Nick Richards now healthy, Jeffries is unlikely to receive significant playing time.
Jeffries (hand) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against Philadelphia. Jeffries his been sidelined for the Hornets' first 18 games of the season due to a fractured right hand, but he has a chance to make his debut Tuesday. The 27-year-old forward appeared in 17 games for the Knicks in 2023-24, averaging just 2.7 minutes per contest. He's unlikely to be a major factor in the Charlotte rotation once cleared to play.
Jeffries (hand) is out for Wednesday's game versus the Heat and doesn't have an official return timetable. Jeffries will miss his 18th straight contest to begin the season Wednesday due to a fractured right hand. Until Charlotte provides a timetable for his return, the 27-year-old big man can be considered out indefinitely.
Jeffries (hand) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Orlando. Jeffries has yet to suit up this season while recovering from a fractured right hand. There is no clear timetable for his return, though his next chance to play will come Wednesday against Miami.
Jeffries (hand) is out for Saturday's game versus the Bucks and doesn't have an official return timetable. Jeffries has yet to suit up this season due to a fractured right hand. Until the Hornets provide a timetable for his return, he can be considered week-to-week.
Jeffries (hand) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Magic. Jeffries fractured his right hand in early October, which has prevented him from making his 2024-25 regular-season debut. His next chance to play will be Saturday against the Bucks.
