 Marcus Thornton-G - Hornets Feb. 8 - 3:42 pm et

Marcus Thornton is still considered questionable for Monday's game against the Magic.
"It's getting there but it's a day-to-day process and I just have to see how it goes," Thornton said. He'll likely test his back just before game time and then make a decision, but it's probably best just to bench him at this point.

 Marcus Thornton-G - Hornets Feb. 6 - 6:45 pm et

Hornets rookie shooting guard Marcus Thornton will miss his second consecutive game with a sore lower back on Saturday.
Thornton tested his back during pregame warmups but still felt stiffness. Hornets coach Jeff Bower said there is a chance Thornton could play Monday night -- for now, they will use the same lineup with veteran Morris Peterson filling in at SG.

 Morris Peterson-G/F - Hornets Feb. 5 - 11:15 pm et  

Morris Peterson started on Friday and had eight points and one 3-pointer in 30 minutes.
James Posey was our Season Pass Pickup of the Day and had eight points, 10 rebounds, six assists, a steal and two 3-pointers off the bench. Posey still looks like the better pickup in the absence of Marcus Thornton, who might be shut down until the break with a back injury.
 Peja Stojakovic-G/F - Hornets Feb. 5 - 11:11 pm et  

Peja Stojakovic hit 8-of-14 shots and four 3-pointers for 23 points, three rebounds, two assists, a steal and a block in Friday's loss.
He's averaging 16 points in his last five games and has hit either three or four 3-pointers in four of those. If he's available in your league, pick him up. He's picking up the scoring gap left by the absence of Chris Paul and Marcus Thornton.
 Marcus Thornton-G - Hornets Feb. 5 - 11:48 am et

Marcus Thornton will be out of the Hornets lineup Friday night against the Sixers due to a bruised lower back.
The decision to shelve Thornton came at the team's shootaround this morning. According to team reports, Morris Peterson will get the start over James Posey, but Posey is still the recommended fantasy play Consider Thornton day-to-day for now and we still like him as a must-start fantasy play whenever healthy.
