Solid performance Wednesday
Nurkic logged nine points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 16 minutes during Wednesday's 102-86 loss to the Magic.
Analysis
Nurkic got the starting nod in his first game as a member of the Hornets. Despite being on a minutes restriction, Nurkic nearly came away with a double-double while also making an impact in the defensive categories. His longer-term outlook remains muddled heading into the All-Star break, however. The status of Mark Williams (not with team) is uncertain while Charlotte disputes the failed physical that resulted in his trade to the Lakers last week being rescinded, but Williams would presumably step back in as the starter if he ultimately sticks around with the Hornets. Even if Williams continues to be held out or if the NBA pushes through his trade to the Lakers, Nurkic could still face a challenge for minutes from Moussa Diabate (eye), who had started the past three games before sitting out Wednesday.

Starting in team debut
Nurkic is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Magic.
Analysis
With the Hornets missing Mark Williams (not injury related) and Moussa Diabate (eye) on Wednesday, Nurkic will draw the start at center while operating with a minutes restriction in his team debut. Nurkic averaged 9.5 rebounds, 8.8 points, 1.9 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.7 blocks in 24.3 minutes over 23 games as a starter with the Suns this season.

Playing Wednesday vs. Magic
Nurkic (recently traded) will operate under a minutes restriction in his Hornets debut Wednesday against the Magic, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.
Analysis
Nurkic was not on the injury report for Monday's loss to the Nets but ended up being a healthy scratch. He's expected to see the court Wednesday, though he'll operate on a minutes restriction while serving as the backup center behind Moussa Diabate (eye).

Available for Monday
Nurkic (trade pending) is not on the injury report for Monday's game against the Nets.
Analysis
Nurkic wasn't cleared to make his debut Sunday against the Pistons, but it appears that he'll suit up for the first time as a Hornet on Monday. Despite Mark Williams (not with team) being ruled out, Nurkic isn't expected to see much playing time if any, per the team's broadcast.

Now listed as out
Nurkic (trade pending) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Pistons.
Analysis
Nurkic wasn't listed on Charlotte's injury report but has been ruled out via the NBA's official report with a trade pending designation. With Mark Williams (trade rescinded) and Nurkic unavailable, Taj Gibson will be the primary backup to Moussa Diabate on Sunday.
February 9, 2025
Not on injury report
Nurkic (trade pending) is not listed on Charlotte's injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Pistons.
Analysis
After falling out of the rotation in Phoenix, Nurkic was traded to the Hornets at the deadline and was waiting for the deal to be finalized. It's unclear what Nurkic's role will be in Charlotte, as Mark Williams is sticking around after the trade to the Lakers fell through and Moussa Diabate recently got a promotion.
February 8, 2025
Questionable for Sunday
Nurkic (trade pending) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Pistons.
Analysis
Nurkic was traded from the Suns to the Hornets earlier this week but is still waiting for the deal to be officially finalized before making his Charlotte debut. If Nurkic is unable to suit up against Detroit, Moussa Diabate and Taj Gibson should soak up the majority of the team's center minutes.

Won't make Charlotte debut Friday
Nurkic (recently traded) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Spurs, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Analysis
Nurkic will sit out of Friday's contest after the Hornets acquired him from the Suns on Thursday. The big man's next chance to play will come Sunday against the Pistons, and he will likely compete with Moussa Diabate for playing time.

Questionable to make debut Friday
Nurkic (trade pending) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Spurs.
Analysis
Nurkic was shipped from Phoenix to Charlotte on Thursday but is questionable to make his debut Friday as the trade is still being finalized. If the 30-year-old big man is able to suit up, he will likely compete for starting center minutes with Moussa Diabate after the Hornets traded away Nick Richards and Mark Williams.
