He spent the 2024-25 season with the Wizards' G League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go, and hasn't appeared in an NBA regular-season game since suiting up for the Hornets during the 2023-24 campaign.

Black (abdomen) is available for Sunday's game against the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Black will return to action following a one-game absence. He's not a regular part of Charlotte's rotation, so his presence shouldn't have a major impact on fantasy hoops.

Black (abdomen) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Black was a late addition to the injury report and will ultimately be sidelined due to an abdominal strain. The Hornets are getting Miles Bridges (wrist) back after a one-game absence, so Black's absence shouldn't have a major impact.

Black is questionable for Friday's game against the Magic due to an abdominal strain.
EDGE Analysis
Black was a late addition to Charlotte's injury report, and it's unclear whether he'll be able to suit up against Orlando. However, since Miles Bridges (wrist) has been cleared to play, it's unlikely Black will be part of the rotation if he's available.
