Hornets' Brandon Miller: Won't suit up Thursday

Miller (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against the Wizards.

Miller will miss his first game since Nov. 1 due to a left ankle sprain. With the 22-year-old sidelined, Cody Martin and Seth Curry are candidates for increased roles. Miller's next chance to play will come in the second leg of the back-to-back set Friday against the 76ers.
