What happened
Kon Knueppel returned Wednesday after missing Charlotte’s first eight games with a left hamstring issue, but he left the loss in Brooklyn after six minutes.
The Hornets called the exit left-leg soreness, and coach Charles Lee offered no postgame update; Knueppel finished with three points and two turnovers.
If the soreness lingers, Charlotte may need to expand its wing rotation again, but his availability for the next game remains unclear.
