Downgraded to out
McNeeley (illness) is out for Thursday's game against New York.
Analysis
McNeeley was a late addition to the injury report, and he's since been downgraded to out due to an illness. He logged 10 minutes in Charlotte's last matchup Tuesday against Sacramento, so Josh Green and Pat Connaughton could pick up a few additional minutes in McNeeley's absence.

Added to injury report
McNeeley is questionable for Thursday's game against the Knicks due to illness.
Analysis
McNeeley is evidently feeling under the weather, putting his availability for Thursday in jeopardy. The Hornets should have another update closer to tipoff.

Plays well off bench
McNeeley ended Tuesday's 134-90 victory over the Kings with seven points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and six rebounds across 10 minutes.
Analysis
This was the rookie's first appearance since Jan. 28, and he made the most of his minutes in garbage time. With the Hornets eyeing a spot in the playoffs, McNeeley is currently on the outside looking in terms of consistent playing time.

Recalled to NBA
The Hornets recalled McNeeley from the G League's Greensboro Swarm on Monday.
Analysis
McNeeley will rejoin the Hornets ahead of their game against the Kings on Tuesday. However, the rookie first-rounder hasn't seen the floor for the parent club since Jan. 28 and isn't guaranteed to play Tuesday.
