The 1-13 Indiana Pacers, who are on an 11-game losing streak, will host the 4-10 Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. ET. This is the first matchup between the two teams this season.

Last season, Charlotte won the season series between both times 2-1. Furthermore, the Hornets have beaten the Pacers in four of their last seven matchups.

Here is the full injury report for the Pacers and Hornets ahead of Wednesday's game.

11/19 Pacers injury report vs. Hornets

  • Johnny Furphy (ankle) - OUT
  • Tyrese Haliburton (Achilles) - OUT
  • Quenton Jackson (hamstring) - OUT
  • Kam Jones (back) - OUT
  • Aaron Nesmith (knee) - OUT
  • Obi Toppin (foot) - OUT

There are no changes to Indiana's injury report. However, it may be important to note that Bennedict Mathurin is completely off of it.

The Canadian native made his return after an 11-game absence during the Pacers' loss to the Detroit Pistons on Monday and made a big impact. In the game, Mathurin recorded 25 points on 7-for-16 shooting, three rebounds, two assists, and a steal.

11/19 Hornets injury report vs. Pacers

  • Josh Green (shoulder) - OUT
  • Tre Mann (ankle) - DOUBTFUL
  • Liam McNeeley (illness) - OUT
  • Brandon Miller (shoulder) - OUT
  • Tidjane Salaun (G League) - OUT
  • Grant Williams (knee) - OUT

Josh Green underwent shoulder surgery in the offseason and has yet to make his season debut for the Hornets. The Australian native does not have a concrete timetable for his return, and he is out for Wednesday's game.

Hornets guard Tre Mann has appeared in every game for the team this season. However, he exited the team's loss to the Toronto Raptors on Monday after 12 minutes with an ankle injury and is now listed as doubtful. Mann is averaging 10.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 3.1 assists this season.

Rookie forward Liam McNeeley has missed each of Charlotte's last three games due to an illness, and he will remain out against the Pacers.

Brandon Miller suffered a shoulder injury just nine minutes into the Hornets' second game of the season and has been out of action since. On Monday, the team announced that the Tennessee native has returned to basketball activities. However, his return will have to wait as he is officially out against the Pacers.

Tidjane Salaun, who was the sixth overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, will not play on Wednesday due to a G League assignment. The French native has been a big disappointment for the Hornets, and he has only averaged 3.1 points and 3.6 rebounds across seven games for the team this season.

Grant Williams has been out of action for nearly a full year after suffering a torn ACL against the Milwaukee Bucks last November. There is still no definitive update on the 26-year-old, but he will not make his season debut on Wednesday as he is officially out.
