Hornets' Ryan Kalkbrenner Out Tuesday with Sprained Left Elbow

Charlotte Hornets C Ryan Kalkbrenner has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Wizards due to a sprained left elbow. This marks the second consecutive game the rookie second-rounder will miss with the injury. His next opportunity to suit up will be Friday's matchup in Orlando. With Mason Plumlee also out of action with a groin injury, Moussa Diabate is expected to handle the bulk of the center minutes for the Hornets on Tuesday.
