Hornets' Roy Hibbert: Looks doubtful for Wednesday

Hibbert (knee) appears doubtful to play in Wednesday's game against the 76ers, Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer reports.

Hibbert has already missed one game due to the sore right knee and has yet to resume practicing, so it's likely that he'll be sidelined for another contest as he takes more time off to recover. It's expected that Cody Zeller will receive the starting nod at center Wednesday if Hibbert is indeed out. If Zeller, who received a four-year contract extension Monday, fares well in place of Hibbert, he could end up holding onto the starting role once both players are healthy.
