Brandon Miller (CHA): Day-To-Day

Brandon Miller, the Hornets’ starting forward who averages 20.2 points, 4.9 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, is listed as day‑to‑day following left‑shoulder surgery. The team expects him back around October 1, 2026, but his exact return date remains uncertain as he continues rehabilitation.

Charlotte sits at 44‑38, ninth in the Eastern Conference and ninth in the league’s power rankings, with a net rating of +4.8. The Hornets have won their most recent game and gone 6‑4 in their last ten contests. Miller’s absence keeps the Hornets on the fringe of the playoff picture, and his health will be a key factor in whether they can improve their standing as the season draws toward its final stretch.
