Hornets' James Bouknight: Good to go

Bouknight (knee) is available for Tuesday's matchup against the Knicks.

As expected, Bouknight has been upgraded from probable to available and will have a chance to make his season debut. He's unlikely to receive significant minutes unless foul trouble or injuries force him into action. Across 34 appearances last season, Bouknight averaged 5.6 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 15.1 minutes per game.
