Career History
Tidjane Salaun Latest News
Struggles again in loss
Salaun supplied three points (1-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), eight rebounds and two assists across 17 minutes during Monday's 115-108 overtime loss to the Bulls. Salaun scored fewer than five points for the fourth time in the past seven games, continuing his slow start to the season. Despite playing meaningful minutes on most nights, Salaun has been unable to take any significant strides forward. Through the first 29 games of his career, Salaun is averaging just 4.9 points and 4.3 rebounds in 19.2 minutes per game.
Good to go Friday
Salaun (ankle) is available for Friday's game versus the Bulls, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. Salaun has been upgraded from questionable to available Friday after missing Charlotte's previous two contests with a sprained left ankle. The rookie forward has struggled with his efficiency this season, shooting 32.7 percent from the field and 29.4 percent from three.
Iffy to face Chicago
Salaun (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls. The rookie is dealing with a left ankle sprain and has missed each of Charlotte's previous two games, but the questionable tag is a step in the right direction toward a potential return. Prior to the injury, Salaun had started six games in a row for the Hornets, averaging 7.7 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 25.5 minutes per game
Remains out Sunday
Salaun (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pacers. Salaun sprained his left ankle during the first quarter of Thursday's loss to the Knicks and will miss both halves of Charlotte's weekend back-to-back set. With Miles Bridges (knee) also sidelined, Josh Green and Cody Martin have handled increased roles. Salaun's next chance to suit up will come Friday in Chicago.
Ruled out to face Cleveland
Salaun (ankle) is out for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports. Salaun suffered an ankle sprain in the first quarter of Thursday's game against the Knicks, and the rookie will miss the team's upcoming contest against the Cavs. The severity of the sprain hasn't been determined yet, but Salaun's next chance to play will come against the Pacers on Sunday in the second leg of a back-to-back set. Expect Josh Green. DaQuan Jeffries and Cody Martin to see more time while Salaun is out.
Won't return vs. Knicks
Salaun has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against New York after being diagnosed with a left ankle sprain. Salaun injured his ankle during the first few minutes of Thursday's clash, and the team was quick to shut him down for the rest of the night. Look for Josh Green, Cody Martin and Nick Smith to pick up additional minutes in the frontcourt in Salaun's absence.
Heads to locker room
Salaun (ankle) headed to the locker room during the first quarter of Thursday's game against the Knicks, Steve Popper of Newsday reports. The rookie forward got injured during a fast break when Josh Hart tried to cut him off. Even though he remained in the game to shoot free throws, he fouled Jalen Brunson to exit the game, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return. If he doesn't, then Josh Green would be a candidate to see more minutes at power forward.
Strong on glass in double-double
Salaun supplied 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt), 10 rebounds and two steals over 26 minutes during Tuesday's 110-104 loss to the 76ers. Salaun was a solid presence in the paint Tuesday, finishing as one of two Hornets players with a double-digit rebound total while ending as one of four players in double figures in scoring in a double-double outing. Salaun set a new season high in rebounds in the loss while recording his first double-double of the season thus far.
Starting Monday
Salaun will start Monday's game against the Magic. With Grant Williams (knee) done for the year, Salaun will move into the starting lineup. The rookie's previous two starts weren't great, as he totaled four points, 16 rebounds and three assists in 40 minutes, but the Hornets are going to have to live with some growing pains given their current injury situation.
