Hornets coach Lee provides injury updates ahead of season opener

Charlotte Hornets head coach Charles Lee gave updates on injured players Coby White and Kon Knueppel before their season opener against the Brooklyn Nets scheduled for Wednesday. Both players missed the preseason with injuries—White due to a calf strain and Knueppel with a hamstring strain. Lee mentioned they are making progress with their recovery, but no specific timeline for their return has been established. If they remain sidelined against Brooklyn, they could potentially return for games against the Atlanta Hawks or Miami Heat later in the week.
