Hornets' Sion James: Goes scoreless in loss
Rotowire
James recorded zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 14 minutes during Saturday's 115-102 loss to the Spurs.
James continues to play a modest role off the bench, typically resulting in limited production. Despite being a consistent part of the rotation, it's fair to say that James' impact on the court does not translate well when it comes to fantasy value.

Hornets' Sion James: Provides spark in win
Rotowire
James accumulated 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt), eight rebounds, two steals and one assist in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 117-90 win over the Mavericks.
With Coby White (calf) unavailable for the front end of this back-to-back set, James saw a bump in minutes and led the second unit in scoring. The rookie second-rounder also tied the team-best mark in rebounds, matching his career high. James will likely see fewer minutes when White returns to action, as the former has yet to log more than 20 minutes when White is available.
