Cody Zeller expected to be back in the lineup when the Hornets play the Bulls on Friday

Charlotte Hornets center has been upgraded to probable for Friday night’s game against the Chicago Bulls according to the Hornets PR team and a confusing Tweet from Adrian Wojnarowski.

Zeller has been out since the second half of the Hornets first game of the season. Without him, the Hornets have given almost all of the center minutes to Bismack Biyombo and PJ Washington. Minutes with the former have gone poorly, to say the least.

Zeller’s return will provide a significant offensive upgrade over Biz when the Hornets elect use a more traditional lineup.
