Moussa Diabate is currently dealing with an illness and his status for the Charlotte Hornets’ upcoming game against the Chicago Bulls is uncertain. This health issue has raised questions about his availability for the game scheduled on January 17, 2025, at the United Center.
What It Means
Moussa Diabate has been a consistent presence for the Hornets this season, playing in 29 games and missing 10. He averages 3.4 points per game and leads his team in rebounds with an average of 6.8 per game. Despite his limited scoring, he has been effective on the boards, finishing in the top five among power forwards in rebounds in over a third of his games this season. The Hornets have averaged slightly fewer points per game when he plays (106.0 PPG) compared to when he does not (108.4 PPG). His absence could impact their rebounding strength against the Bulls.
