| Thu Mar 19 | 18:38 | Collin Sexton is Available for Thursday's Game |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (leg) is available to play ahead of Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Sexton made his return after a four-game absence on Wednesday. He finished with 14 points, five assists, and one steal across 18 minutes of action. There was some speculation that Sexton would sit out the second leg of the back-to-back set. That won't be the case as Sexton is available and should see a slightly heavier workload. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can go ahead and get Sexton active in their lineups ahead of tip-off. |

| Wed Mar 18 | 19:45 | Collin Sexton Cleared to Return Wednesday |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (lower leg) will play Wednesday against the Raptors after missing four games and should reclaim a key scoring role off the bench. He erupted for 28 points with seven three-pointers, two rebounds, and three assists in 22 minutes in his last appearance and could provide a late-season scoring boost for fantasy managers. His return may cut into Rob Dillingham's minutes and cap Tre Jones' usage. Sexton is mainly a points and threes streamer for fantasy playoffs and offers less value when the scoring dips. |

| Fri Mar 13 | 21:54 | Collin Sexton to Miss Third Straight Game |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (leg) will remain on the sideline ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This marks the third game in a row that Sexton has missed with a leg injury. Fantasy managers should consider Sexton questionable ahead of Monday's matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. The absence of Sexton should mean that Rob Dillingham continues to see increased run in the rotation. He finished with 12 points, seven assists, and five rebounds across 29 minutes of action on Thursday. Outside of that performance, Dillingham has mostly been a dud lately. He'll be a possible deep league option while Sexton is out. |

| Thu Mar 12 | 21:13 | Collin Sexton Out Thursday Against Lakers |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (leg) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lakers after initially being listed as questionable due to a left leg injury. His absence should continue to open minutes for Tre Jones, who delivered 22 points, five assists, four rebounds, one steal, and two 3-pointers across 34 minutes off the bench in the last game. Second-year guard Rob Dillingham also saw 20 minutes with five points and four assists, making him a deeper league streamer. Jones profiles as the safer short-term fantasy play, while Dillingham remains a riskier upside option. |

| Tue Mar 10 | 08:15 | Collin Sexton Considered Questionable Tuesday |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (leg) is questionable to play on Tuesday night against the Golden State Warriors. He injured his left leg on Sunday against Sacramento and might be unavailable for the first time since making his Bulls debut on Feb. 7. Sexton has been a great fit in Chicago and led his team in scoring for four consecutive games. If Sexton can't play on Tuesday, Rob Dillingham is expected to absorb many of his minutes, but he still isn't an appealing fantasy option, even with an expanded role. |

| Mon Mar 9 | 07:08 | Collin Sexton Leaves with Leg Injury After 28-Point Burst |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton (leg) did not return to Sunday's loss to the Kings after suffering a left lower leg contusion late in the third quarter. The 27-year-old sixth man had erupted before exiting, piling up 28 points on 9-of-12 shooting with seven three-pointers, three assists, and two rebounds in 22 minutes. If Sexton misses time, Chicago's backcourt usage should lean even more toward Josh Giddey, while Tre Jones could continue seeing steady run after producing 12 points, five assists, one rebound, and one steal in 32 minutes Sunday. Second-year guard Rob Dillingham may also pick up deeper-league minutes. |

| Thu Mar 5 | 20:49 | Collin Sexton, Leonard Miller Will Start Thursday |
Chicago Bulls guard Collin Sexton and forward Leonard Miller will join the first unit for Thursday's tilt against the Phoenix Suns. The two will replace Josh Giddey (ankle) and Matas Buzelis (ankle), respectively. While Sexton has plenty of prior experience as a starter, Miller will make his first career start. He has earned the opportunity by averaging 11.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.3 steals off the bench across the last three games. Tre Jones, Isaac Okoro, and Guerschon Yabusele are also in the starting lineup against the Suns. |

| Tue Dec 23 2025 | 18:34 | Collin Sexton Back in Action Tuesday |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) will return from a seven-game absence on Tuesday against the Washington Wizards. His return is poised to impact the playing time of Tre Mann, KJ Simpson, and Sion James. Sexton has had a solid year in Charlotte, averaging 15.5 points and 4.2 assists in 25.2 minutes. In this season's first meeting with the Wizards, Sexton shot 70 percent from the field and finished with 20 points. |

| Mon Dec 22 2025 | 18:06 | Collin Sexton Remains Out Monday |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Monday's meeting with the Cleveland Cavaliers. This was expected after Sexton was listed on the initial injury report as doubtful. With Sexton out for a seventh consecutive game, there will be around 25 minutes of action available to be shared around in the backcourt. LaMelo Ball could be set for a busy night, with Tre Mann, KJ Simpson, and Sion James all potentially having larger roles to play. However, this is a tough matchup for Charlotte's backcourt, as Cleveland has produced solid defensive numbers against opposing guards. |

| Mon Dec 22 2025 | 10:04 | Collin Sexton Likely to Remain Out Monday |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) is looking at a seventh consecutive absence, as the team lists him as doubtful for Monday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Sexton is battling a quadriceps strain, and muscle injuries are not easy to shake off. KJ Simpson, Sion James, and Tre Mann have more fantasy appeal due to Sexton's absence. The trio would receive an even larger boost if LaMelo Ball (wrist) exited the lineup. Currently, Ball is listed as probable on the injury report. |

| Sat Dec 20 2025 | 16:20 | Collin Sexton Sidelined Again on Saturday Evening |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) isn't available for Saturday's game in Detroit. He was initially listed as questionable, so it appears he's inching closer toward a return. However, that won't happen on Saturday night. With LaMelo Ball recently returning from a stint on the shelf, Sexton's fantasy ceiling should be lower once he's healthy enough to get back on the floor. Until that happens, KJ Simpson and Sion James may continue to see more action, although that could change with Tre Mann (knee) available to suit up after missing the last seven contests. |

| Thu Dec 18 2025 | 08:32 | Collin Sexton Out on Thursday |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks, missing a fifth consecutive game. Sexton strained his left quadriceps earlier this month. He has been mainly used as a spark plug off the bench this season, averaging 15.5 points and 4.2 assists in 25.2 minutes. Tre Mann (knee) is also out on Thursday, while LaMelo Ball (ankle) is considered questionable. In this situation, players like Sion James and KJ Simpson could be fantasy options in a good matchup against a fast-paced team with a mediocre defense. |

| Sun Dec 14 2025 | 12:06 | Collin Sexton Unavailable Against Cleveland |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) won't play on Sunday against Cleveland, marking his fourth-straight absence. With LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Tre Mann (knee) also on the shelf, there will be extra minutes up for grabs, which Sexton likely would have absorbed. However, with Sexton sidelined as well, KJ Simpson may get another start. The 23-year-old has averaged 13.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.5 steals in two starts this season. While that won't make him a practical option in some fantasy formats, he should draw more interest from DFS participants for value reasons despite a challenging game on tap. |

| Fri Dec 12 2025 | 11:44 | Collin Sexton Sidelined Again Versus Bulls |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) will miss his third straight game Friday against Chicago due to a left quad strain, with his next chance to return Sunday in Cleveland. His absence keeps Charlotte thin in the backcourt alongside LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Tre Mann (knee), pushing more responsibility to younger options. KJ Simpson logged 16 points, five rebounds, and one assist in 29 minutes in his last start, giving him deep-league streaming appeal. Kon Knueppel and Brandon Miller should continue handling added usage, while Sexton remains a clear hold in standard formats. |

| Wed Dec 3 2025 | 22:36 | Collin Sexton Injured in Loss to Knicks |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (thigh) exited Wednesday's loss to the New York Knicks. He did not return. With LaMelo Ball (wrist) available, Sexton came off the bench. Unfortunately, he ended up logging only nine minutes before suffering a thigh injury, finishing with four points. The 26-year-old has shuffled between the starting lineup and reserve roles throughout the 2025 campaign. However, no matter his role, he's still played well enough to be considered an every day fantasy option in all formats despite not doing much outside of his contributions on the scoring end. Charlotte won't play again until Friday in Toronto. If Sexton doesn't suit up, there are several directions head coach Charles Lee may go with the rotation, with Liam McNeeley and Tidjane Salaun the favorites to see more work. There's also a chance KJ Simpson gets the bump up from the G League. |

| Sun Nov 9 2025 | 19:41 | Collin Sexton Available Against Lakers |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (neck) has been cleared to return to the lineup on Monday versus the Los Angeles Lakers. The 26-year-old has recently battled a neck strain and missed his first game of the season on Friday against the Miami Heat. Sexton is poised to have a big role in Monday's contest, as Charlotte won't have LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Brandon Miller (shoulder) in the lineup. Additionally, Miles Bridges (back) is considered questionable for the game. So far this season, Sexton has contributed 16.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists, shooting an impressive 51.2 percent from the floor. |

| Fri Nov 7 2025 | 14:44 | Collin Sexton Downgraded from Probable to Doubtful on Friday |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (neck) went from more likely to play to more likely to watch from the sidelines on Friday. Earlier Friday morning, Sexton was considered probable to play their NBA Cup game against the Miami Heat, but the team's PR department has since announced that he's been downgraded to doubtful. Unfortunately, LaMelo Ball (ankle) was also downgraded from questionable to doubtful. That means Tre Mann is likely moving into the starting five while Kon Knueppel and Sion James will have an even bigger role in the offense. For fantasy managers in deeper leagues, KJ Simpson might even be worth a look for relief minutes in the backcourt. As of right now, Knueppel is the most consistent with averages of 14.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 3.1 threes per game. |

| Thu Nov 6 2025 | 21:02 | Collin Sexton Listed as Probable for Friday |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (neck) is carrying a probable tag on the injury report ahead of Friday's encounter with the Miami Heat. The speedy guard is dealing with a neck strain, but it likely won't keep him off the court against the Heat. After being used as a spark plug off the bench, Sexton has made three consecutive starts for the Hornets. He's had more ball-handling duties with LaMelo Ball (ankle) sidelined, averaging 12.3 points and 6.0 assists over the last three games. While Ball could return to the lineup on Friday night, Sexton should continue to figure heavily in the backcourt. |

| Tue Aug 19 2025 | 08:36 | Hornets Have High Hopes for Collin Sexton |
Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton is expected to be a big piece for the team in 2025-26. "I've always witnessed him competing at a really high level," Hornets head coach Charles Lee said about Sexton during an appearance on WFNZ radio. "Since he's been around our group, he's elevated the intensity. He's definitely a sociable and in-your-face type guy, but I love it. I think he's going to add a lot to our group and our culture." Sexton has proven himself as a reliable scorer, but was traded for a second time in his career this offseason. He'll have plenty to prove in Charlotte, especially since he will be in the final year of his contract. |
