Jeffries provided 20 points (8-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt), one assist and two blocks in 32 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 123-110 loss to the Hawks.
Jeffries recorded a career-high 20 points in the loss, eclipsing 30 minutes for the second game in a row. Fantasy managers may need to see more performances like this before jumping onboard, as this was certainly an outlier. Over his last seven games, Jeffries holds averages of 6.4 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.7 blocks and 1.1 three-pointers in 23.4 minutes.
Jeffries will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against Miami.
The 27-year-old will supplant Nick Smith in the starting five for the second time over the club's last three outings. Jeffries has averaged 3.4 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists across 19.4 minutes per game in his last five outings (two starts).

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Starting Wednesday
Rotowire
Jeffries is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.
With Josh Green out with an illness Wednesday, a spot in Charlotte's starting five has opened up for Jeffries. Over two previous starts earlier this season, Jeffries has averaged just 2.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.5 blocks in 30.1 minutes.

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Grabs eight boards in return
Rotowire
Jeffries (knee) posted six points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and eight rebounds across 17 minutes Thursday in the Hornets' 103-96 loss to the Mavericks.
Back in action after missing the previous four games due to a left knee effusion, Jeffries reclaimed a spot in the Charlotte rotation as a backup forward. When healthy, Jeffries has been able to hold down a regular role on the second unit since early December, but he hasn't produced well enough to put himself on the radar outside of deeper leagues. Over 23 appearances, Jeffries is averaging 5.0 points, 2.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 19.1 minutes while shooting 38.7 percent from the floor.

Rotowire
Jeffries (knee) is available in Thursday's game against the Mavericks.
Jeffries will conclude a four-game absence due to a knee injury Thursday. With Jusuf Nurkic (illness), Tidjane Salaun (ankle) and Wendell Moore (concussion) all sidelined against Dallas, Jeffries could be forced to play meaningful minutes in his first game back in action. Over his last 14 games (two starts), Jeffries has averaged 3.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.6 steals and 0.4 blocks in 19.3 minutes.

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Questionable for Thursday
Rotowire
Jeffries (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against Dallas.
Jeffries is in jeopardy of missing a fifth consecutive game Thursday due to knee soreness. If the swingman cannot suit up against the Mavericks, Damion Baugh could be in line for an uptick in playing time, as Wendell Moore is also iffy to suit up with a concussion.

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Questionable Thursday
Rotowire
Jeffries is questionable for Thursday's game against the Nuggets due to right knee soreness.
With both LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Mark Williams (conditioning) out, Jeffries could step into a bigger role if available. He's played double-digit minutes in 13 straight games, averaging 3.8 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists. However, if Jeffries is sidelined, that could mean more minutes for players like Tidjane Salaun, Seth Curry and others.

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Back in bench role
Rotowire
Jeffries isn't starting Monday's game against the Nets.
Jeffries drew a pair of spot starts over the weekend while Charlotte fought the injury bug, but he'll return to his usual bench role Monday. He hasn't been much of a factor as a reserve of late, averaging 3.2 points, 1.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.0 steals over his last five bench appearances.

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Muted role continues in loss
Rotowire
Jeffries notched five points (1-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one assist, one block and one steal in 14 minutes during Saturday's 107-104 loss to the Nuggets.
Jeffries continues to play limited minutes off the bench, albeit on a somewhat consistent basis. He has now played at least 10 minutes in six straight games, a trend that could continue given the Hornets' current injury status. Despite the uptick in playing time, Jeffries has been unable to provide anything but modest contributions on both ends of the floor.

Hornets' DaQuan Jeffries: Iffy for Sunday
Rotowire
Jeffries is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Suns due to an illness.
Jeffries wasn't included on the Hornets' initial injury report that was released Saturday, so the illness is presumably something that cropped up overnight. The 27-year-old has been available for both of the Hornets' previous two games but didn't see the court in coach's decisions, so he'll likely be outside of the rotation even if he ends up shaking off the illness ahead of Sunday's 9 p.m. ET tipoff.
