EDGE Analysis

Bacon experienced swelling following Sunday's game against the 76ers. It's reportedly gone down, but probably not enough for him to take the court. In his place, Malik Monk could see more action.

Bacon finished with eight points (3-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist to go along with a block and a steal in 21 minutes of action during the Hornets' 108-87 loss against the Celtics on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

After exploding for a career-high 25 points against the Warriors on Saturday, Bacon has fallen back to earth, as he is just 3-of-12 from the field in the two games since his scoring outburst. While the guard was only able to record eight points in 21 minutes, the performance was a sizeable improvement from his previous game in which he was unable to score in just 13 minutes of play. Excluding one game, the 24-year-old has fluctuated between scoring under 10 or over 20 points in every game that he has played in, making it hard to consider him a reliable fantasy option.
