Good to go
Connaughton (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis
Connaughton has been given the green light to face Golden State on Wednesday despite dealing with left ankle soreness. The 32-year-old has been a minor rotation piece for Charlotte this season, but the absence of Miles Bridges (ankle) could result in more looks for Connaughton.

Bumped up to probable
Connaughton has been upgraded to probable for Wednesday's game against Golden State.
Analysis
Connaughton was initially listed as questionable due to left ankle soreness, but it looks like the veteran will suit up. He hasn't played more than six minutes in any of his last four appearances, but with Miles Bridges (ankle) not expected to play, Connaughton could be part of the rotation against Golden State.

Questionable to face Golden State
Connaughton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Warriors.
Analysis
Connaughton is dealing with left ankle soreness and is in jeopardy of missing Wednesday's contest. However, the veteran forward hasn't logged double-digit minutes since Nov. 19, so his potential absence shouldn't affect the Charlotte rotation.

Invisible again Friday
Connaughton finished with one point (1-2 FT) and one assist over two minutes during Friday's 120-105 win over the Magic.
Analysis
Connaughton played no more than six minutes for the fourth straight game, all of which have come during garbage time. At this point, it doesn't appear as though Connaughton is part of the long-term plans in Charlotte, making him a non-factor in all fantasy formats.
