Hornets' Knueppel Cleared to Play vs. Warriors; Bridges Doubtful

Charlotte Hornets forward Kon Knueppel (ankle) is available for Wednesday's game against the Warriors, returning from a one-game absence due to a sprained right ankle. The rookie could see an increased offensive role, especially with teammate Miles Bridges downgraded to doubtful. Knueppel has been averaging 19.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game, making his return timely for the Hornets.
