The Charlotte Hornets will likely be without their top-three scorers and four starters on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. PJ Washington will join team second-leading scorer Gordon Hayward and third-leading scorer LaMelo Ball on the sidelines. Washington sprained his right ankle during Sunday’s loss to the Atlanta Hawks and becomes yet another injured Hornets starter. Hayward will miss his fifth straight with a foot sprain, while Ball’s fractured wrist will keep him out for a 12th-straight game. It looks like Charlotte’s leading scorer Terry Rozier is headed in the same direction while dealing with left knee tendinitis.
